New Academic Year, New Us!

September 7, 2021 by Dani Wolfegang-James Leave a Comment

Header image for the blog post. Text reads, "September 2021 / Welcome Back!". The first line is written in a simple grey font, and the second line in bright blue and green Barrecito font. Below the text is the LibraryPlus+ logo, consisting of the words "LibraryPlus+" in grey and blue text, and a stylised image of a book in grey, blue, and green. Beneath the text is an animated pink and blue cat who springs out of a trap door and says, "What's Up?". Cute cartoon animals also line the bottom of the image, standing in front of cartoon piles of books. There is a chick, a frog, a hamster, and a cat.

A new academic year has begun. Hooray! Everyone on the SGS College LibraryPlus+ team is super excited to welcome back continuing learners and say hello to new ones for the 2021/2022 Academic Year! So, without further ado... Did you all have an enjoyable summer? We hope so! And are you totally psyched to be back in college?! We know the answer to that is … [Read more...]

PRIDE 2021 at SGS LRC

June 4, 2021 by Dani Wolfegang-James Leave a Comment

Text reads "Pride 2021 / at SGS LRC". Background is rainbow bookshelves. Front centre is an animation of an open book with a rainbow spilling up from the pages. Lower left corner is a hand choosing a rainbow book from a shelf of grey books. Lower right is a pink moon with a rainbow flag planted in it. Behind the text is a curving rainbow made of books. Centre behind the text are two crossed over, upside down rainbow flags, which sort of resemble angel wings behind the "E" in Pride.

June has come around once again (as Junes are wont to do), and that means one very important thing: it's Pride Month! Hooray! And this Pride Month, SGS LRCs are proud to present to you a highlighted selection of LGBTQIA+ novels, non-fiction books, and DVDs from our lending catalogue. From the old classics through to modern young adult lit, queer writing and writers have … [Read more...]

World Book Night 2021 – Books To Make You Smile :)

April 23, 2021 by Dani Wolfegang-James Leave a Comment

Header image. Text reads, "World Book Night / Friday 23rd April 2021 / Books To Make You Smile". Background is dark blue. The World Book Night logo is in the upper right corner. Along the bottom are three sketch-cartoon smiley faces with slightly different expressions.

  The evening of April 23rd, 2021, is World Book Night! This year, the World Book Night organisers have chosen the theme “Books To Make You Smile”, which is about, unsurprisingly, books which make you smile! Given the events of the past year, we think that this theme is a very good one - and highly necessary! What better escapism than a good book that makes you grin, after … [Read more...]

December 10, 2020 by Dani Wolfegang-James Leave a Comment

December is upon us; the final month of what might be called, politely, an interesting year. From wildfires to worldwide protests, murder hornets to the Supernatural finale, and, in case anyone missed it - perhaps those who have been in hibernation since last Christmas? - The Pandemic, 2020 has been a trying one for all of us. I would say "Well Done!" to you all for getting … [Read more...]
