Join us on the LTB patio to listen to passages from banned and challenged books, as part of the USFP Library celebration of Banned Books Week.

Readings will be from 11:15AM to 1PM and 4:15PM to 6PM (yes, we sneaked in a couple more readers). Among the banned/challenged authors this year: Mark Twain, Toni Morrison, Judy Blume, Stephenie Meyer, D.H. Lawrence, Harper Lee and Polk County’s own Craig McKee.

This week is the 28th edition of National Banned Books Week. The USF Polytechnic Library is celebrating in many ways:

• a display of challenged or banned books from our collections
• quotes on freedom of expression, censorship and the freedom to read
• our Read Out event, Tuesday September 29th, from 11:15AM to 1PM and 4:15PM to 6PM. Members of the campus community will be reading from banned or challenged books in 15-minutes increments on the patio outside the Library (LTB 1115)
• drawing of two prizes during the Read Out event

Here are some interesting sites about Banned Books Week or the issues behind it:

• the official site of Banned Books Week with a telling map and a Manifesto, by banned bestseller author Ellen Hopkins
• the Office of Intellectual Freedom of the American Library Association
• the ACRL Intellectual Freedom Committee’s blog
• the Libraries and the First Amendment online exhibit from the McCormick Freedom Museum
• the Center for Campus Free Speech

Come and celebrate your freedom to read with us!

This morning, in The Ledger newspaper, an article was published on the Library’s Read Out event on September 29th. During the event, we will be reading passages from banned or challenged books out loud.

We invite everyone on campus to participate in listening or reading (still good spots available). Please contact the librarian, Catherine Lavallée-Welch, if you’re interested in reading (863-667-7737; clw@poly.usf.edu).

AdViews is a digital archive of thousands of vintage television commercials dating from the 1950s to the 1980s. The collection is made accessible online by the Duke University Special Collections Library.

These commercials were created or collected by the ad agency Benton & Bowles or its successor, D’Arcy Masius Benton & Bowles (DMB&B). Founded in 1929, Benton & Bowles was a New York advertising agency that merged with D’Arcy Masius McManus in 1985 to form DMB&B. Major clients included are Procter & Gamble, Kraft, Schick, Vicks, and Post, among others. They are available on iTunes U or via the Library’s AdViews website.

September 15 to October 15 is National Hispanic Heritage Month. National Hispanic Heritage Month is a celebration of the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America.

In recognition of Hispanic Heritage Month, the USF Polytechnic Library is highlighting the books, journals, and electronic databases in our collection that support research into Hispanic heritage.

For additional information, also see http://hispanicheritagemonth.gov/ and http://www.floridahispanicheritage.com.

There is a job opening at the USF Polytechnic Library for a FWS student to man the circulation desk during the weekdays. We’re looking for someone with a good service attitude!

The USF Polytechnic Library invites you to celebrate the freedom to read by participating in a READ OUT! event during Banned Books Week (September 26 to October 3).

• What: Read from a challenged or banned book for a 15 minutes period. There is no microphone, no sitting audience – you read from a passage of your choice from a book of your choice in a normal voice to passers-by. Anyone can read: students, staff or faculty members.
• When: Tuesday, September 29, from 11:30 AM to 1 PM and from 4:30 PM to 6 PM
• Where: On the LTB terrace, outside the USFP Library/Open Use Lab
• Why: Banned Books Week celebrates the freedom to choose or the freedom to express one’s opinion even if that opinion might be considered unorthodox or unpopular and stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of those viewpoints to all who wish to read them. After all, intellectual freedom can exist only where these two essential conditions are met.
• How: Sign up with the librarian, Catherine Lavallée-Welch (clw@poly.usf.edu), with your preferred time and title (if possible, readers should bring their own books since the Library has a limited selection. Please see the 2008-2009 list of challenged or banned books and the list of the 100 most challenged or banned books from 2000 to 2007 for title ideas.) We’ll do our best to accommodate your preferred time.

Don’t want to read out loud? Come listen to the readers and come to the Library during the week to check out the displays and pick up a handout. We’ll also have a door prize drawing the day of the Read Out.

Find more information about Banned Books Week and the freedom to read on the American Library Association website.

Here are the items newly arrived at the USF Polytechnic Library during the month of August. As always, new circulating books and children’s books are found in the “New books” stacks in the Group Study area and can be checked out; the new reference and DVD titles are being immediately shelved in their respective stacks.

To note, we received many new titles as well as donations. Of particular interest are the 6th edition of the APA Publication Manual (reference), a book showcasing architect Santiago Calatrava’s work (circulating) and our first print issue of Scientific American (top choice in a faculty survey on scientific magazines. We look forward our first issue of Psychology Today, second choice in the survey.)
