Time for a Book Party

On April 7, at 4 pm, the University Libraries will celebrate all the books edited or authored by UNCG faculty between January, 2010 and March 31, 2011. We received more than 40 books that were published in this timeframe. We want to extend our thanks the faculty from 23 different departments who alerted us to the publication of their books. The books include a poetry translation, textbooks, collections of essays, and monographs on topics from nursing management, to art criticism, to George Herbert, to social change. Two of the books were written by emeritus faculty members Robert Calhoon (History) and Richard Cox (School of Music, Theatre, and Dance).

Special thanks to the Office of the Provost for co-sponsoring the reception, which will take place on April 7 at 4pm in the Jackson Library Reading Room.
