The graphic literature display is spread among two short display shelves of 11 books and one figurine each, plus a 3-tiered display of 13 books and 4 figurines. The sign on the wall has a quote from Marjane Satrapi: "Graphic novels are not traditional literature, but that does not mean they are second-rate. Images are a way of writing. When you have the talent to be able to write and to draw, it seems a shame to choose one. I think it's better to do both."

A black sign hanging on the wall over the display shelves has gold illustrations of holiday ornaments, 2026, and the text "Cheers to a year of achievements." On the tall whiteboard is written the question, "What are your top goals for this semester?" in blue marker. Books on the display shelves include: Motivation and Learning Strategies for College Success; Fired Up; The Possible Self; Living In Wisdom; Motivate Yourself; The Magic of Knowing What you Want; Choose Your Life Purpose; and Shackleton's Way. Motivational signs say, "Make it happen," "Stay positive, work hard, make it happen," and, "Today is a good day for a good day."

We're ready to welcome students to MCC Libraries and we'd like to know: what are your top goals for this semester? We picked out some books that can help with setting goals and breaking barriers – your success story awaits! #MCCLibraries
