We will be sending out reminders for those of you who have books checked out. Please return your books before you leave so that the library can get them all in the system and be ready for the fall semester. If you would like special permission to keep a book for the summer, please just request this and we will be glad to consider this request

I hope you all noticed the beautiful display of weaver bird's nest which was set up by Dr Janette Wallis in the central display cube. Thanks to her for sharing the nests and the information on weavers

Take a look at the new display case and cabinet to the left of the reference desk. This contains some of the first documents published as part of the establishment of AAUN. There are also 4 framed photographs on the wall which show the initial signing ceremony celebrating the agreement between AU and AAUN. These items form the begining of our University Archives repository.

We have been receiving more journals from our distributor of international Journals, Swets as well as from local Nigerian sources. Please come and see these new journals on our shelves:

We have been given some articles and books which have been published by tha AAUN Faculty and Administrators. The small but growing collection needs your additions. We can accept these in hard or soft copy or both and will display them for our visitors. Thank you in advance!
