Additional activities, like a coloring station help you beat stress and get your creative juices flowing, will continue throughout the end of the semester. Pick up coloring sheets and colored pencils at the East entrance of Mullins and turn in your creations for display in the West lobby. There will also be a book display in the Learning Commons, across from the main circulation desk. December’s selections will highlight quick reads and fun books, in case you need a fun distraction.
There’s always time to schedule a research consultation – reach out to your subject librarian, or email refer@uark.edu. These consultations usually take an hour and are tailored to specific research needs.
