A photo of a Quote printed out and stuck on a study desk in the Newcomb Library - our featured July Resource of the Month "Books are health food for your brain and dessert for your soul. Books are one of the few proven sources of mental exercise known to man. Reading is a workout for your mind. If your body needs thirty minutes of exercise daily, so does your thinker" Pat Williams

"Books are health food for the brain & dessert for your soul..." so get your #Library5ADay nourishment here!

A cartoonised library depicts a classic if dated view of library staff at the issues desk telling a young child about a book saying "instead of powering it up, you just turn the cover to get started! instead of clicking "next page" all you do is turn it! Pretty cool, ay?" Of note the child looks confused and this may be from an era when people thought eBooks would surpass print prior to the recent print renaissance that has shown people still prefer physical copies generally. Are you still reading this? I admire your commitment - libraries are cool, and so are library users - have a great day!

A librarian leans over a desk pointing at a large purple book a child is holding. She has a speech bubble that says "instead of powering it up, you just turn to cover and get started! And instead of clicking on "next page" all you do is turn it! Pretty cool, ay?" She looks happy and the child looks a little confused but intrigued.
