Texas Library Snapshot Day

Texas Library Association sponsors snapshot day from April 26 – May 7.  The purpose is to increase public awareness of the place all kinds of libraries, school, academic, public, and special have in a civil society.  This year Moffett Library participated on April the 28; we sponsored Library After Dark from 5 pm – 10 pm.  Activities included trivial pursuit  or are you smarter than a librarian?, free food for those studying, and specialized assistance from trained staff.  Students commented on how they were surprised to see librarians out of their normal dress.  Some librarians came in slippers, pajamas, in homage to the after dark theme.  Based on the positive response this will probably be an annual event.  Thanks to those who helped make this a success.10 pm to thank the student body community who among others uses the services we provide.  While there was fun in playing trivial pursuit, having popcorn, and drawings for Happy Meal style prizes we hope the public who happened to be in the building remember that their success is in part from their use of this academic library.  The pictures are just a few of the shots captured during the evening.  Thanks to all who helped make this day a success.
