Leaves on the trees, new sprinklers, and dandelions.  Children running, jumping and enjoying their lunch.  Students throwing Frisbees, kicking soccer balls, and suntanning (remember your sunscreen everyone!) The Bowl has been alive with life since the weather turned nice and we at the Science Library have been reaping the benefits of easy access to the outdoors!  We have noticed other staff heading out to take walks in the sunshine – wave as you pass our windows — we can see you even if you can’t see us!

As for what’s happening inside the branch, we are happy to say…a lot!  We had a Hawaiian themed birthday party last week, as well as a picnic for an Un-Birthday the week before!  We have several projects on the go, including a new display (Why does it smell so good after it rains?) that will be going up the first week of June; we are also working on archiving past displays.  And, of course, our students are enjoying their short&sweet&warm&relaxed summer classes, and show us their dedication by studying until 4:29:59 most days.

Enjoy the sunshine everyone, and we hope to see more of you enjoying it over the coming summer!
