It's hard to believe but the end of the term is only a few weeks away.  For university students, that can only mean one thing: exams.  Make that two things: the Library's open longer. Starting this weekend, and continuing until the end of exams on December 8, we won't close until  1:00am.  Every night.  And on Saturdays and Sundays we'll open earlier than usual too. Here's what our hours look like for the foreseeable future: November 12 - 17   Monday - Friday   8:00am-11:00pm Saturday 10:00am-1:00am Sunday  10:00am-1:00am November 18 - Dec. 8 Monday - Saturday 8:00am-1:00am Sunday  10:00am-1:00am So good luck on your exams, your papers or any other final assignments you may have to handle before the break.  You'll make it!

  The library is very pleased to be hosting a new exhibit from the Canadian Language Museum at the University of Toronto.  Speaking the Inuit Way highlights the development of native languages in Canada's north.  Its series of 6-foot panels combine to provide an informative account of the socio-cultural history of  Inuit languages and their current state and challenges. The Library has worked with the Centre for the Interdisciplinary Study of Culture at Saint Mary's to bring this traveling exhibit to Halifax.  It will be here for just a few weeks so catch it while you can.  It's near the elevator and stairs on the main floor.
