Happy New Year!

Hopefully everyone is having a relaxing break in preparation for the upcoming spring semester. Alkek Library re-opened on January 3, after having an extra day off in remembrance of President Gerald Ford. Our hours will be from 8am to 5pm Monday - Friday until the new semester begins. We are closed on the weekends until the semester starts and also on MLK this year.

For some interesting reading while the library is closed or you are off campus, check out the E-books page. A new link added yesterday is to Librivox whose goal is to make available all books in the public domain available in mp3 and .ogg audio format. All Websites listed on the E-books page offer free electronic books or audio books. The e-books in the databases or via NetLibrary are not free, but if you are affiliated with Texas State (either a student, faculty or staff) you can access these electronic books using your NetID.

Happy reading...
