GC LITC Celebrates National Library Week by “Giving a Hoot!”

GC LITC Celebrates National Library Week by “Giving a Hoot!” National Library Week begins on April 8, 2012 and continues through April 14, 2012. This year’s theme is “You Belong @ Your Library.” The Georgia College Library & Instructional Technology Center will celebrate National Library Week by co-hosting a question and answer session with a New York Times bestselling author and by giving away t-shirts and a finals week “survival basket.” The LITC would also like to congratulate Vanessa Whited, a mass communications major who created the winning design for the 2012 LITC t-shirt! Whited’s submission features a wide-eyed night owl, because of the “late nights studying in the LITC [that] are an inevitable part of life at Georgia College.” Whited states that the slogan “‘I give a hoot about my library,’ highlights the fact that whomever wears the design sincerely cares about the LITC and the services it provides to campus. Even if the wearer isn’t a ‘night owl’ who studies into the late hours of the night, he or she can still acknowledge that they are appreciative of the LITC, and that they truly give a hoot!” Follow GCSU LITC on Facebook and be the first to answer a library-related question correctly for a chance to win a t-shirt or a basket of goodies guaranteed to help you through long nights of studying. T-shirts will also be given away during a drawing on Wednesday, April 11th, from 12pm until 5pm, on the second floor of the LITC. Co-hosted by the Georgia College Honors Program and the Library & Instructional Technology Center, Graphic novelist Robert Venditti will be available for a question and answer session on Tuesday, April 10th from 7:30pm to 8:30pm in the Pat Peterson Museum Education Room in the Georgia College Museum located at 221 N. Clarke Street in Milledgeville.
