Congrats UWT Huskies - you are just a few days away from grabbing that diploma and throwing your graduation caps in the air! We wanted to let you know your library is open for all the pictures you want to take whether that’s on the sky bridge, in the powerhouse, in the stacks, and up on the 4th floor with that beautiful view of the mountain. We are so proud of all your hard work to get to this point and can’t wait to see your smiling faces; this is your library after all and always will be!
