Some library vibes for the first day of finals.
Remember that we have extended hours today through Tues. Dec. 17, including Sunday!
Some tips to stay sane - make a priority to-do list, take a short break every so often, and get some sleep!

Using QuickSearch can be great way to find information and sources for your research projects! If you need help, you can always ask a librarian - they aren't usually that flustered.

Did you know that the Genesee Historical. Ollections Center has documents and artifacts about the history of Autoworld? Well we do!
What was Autoworld? An indoor theme park that lasted for 6 months in 1984. It is one of many failed "revitalization" projects in the late 20th century that Flint attempted.
It was located where the William S. White Building is currently on the UM-Flint campus.

If end up not wanting to borrow a book, that's OK! Leave it on one of the carts spread throughout the library, on the tables by the main staircase, or even bring it to the circulation desk.
We'll put it away for you, and we like to know which books are being used.

Archivist Callum Carr describes a recent donation to the archivist. The Breeches Bible is the oldest item in our collection and was donated by St. Paul's Episcopal Church so that it could be preserved.
Contact the Genesee Historical Center to see it in person and to discover more local history.

It's true! As we welcome back students to the new academic year, we say goodbye to one of our most visually impressive (but least used) collections - the Genesee County Probate Records.These big guys are municipal records and are unable to be donated to any archives outside the Library of Michigan. The state library is making a big push to find and recover these scattered, handwritten records and honestly, we are glad to have the shelf space back! #LibraryofMichigan
