University Libraries Calendar

Take a deep dive into children’s literature of the past and compare and contrast the themes and narratives in children’s book of the past with contemporary children’s stories today. Cookies and coffee will also be provided.

This semester, University Libraries invites faculty to join a thought-provoking book club focused on the rapidly evolving world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its implications for higher education. Across four sessions, we’ll explore a series of books that range from alarmist to optimistic, speculative to practical—each selected to spark reflection, discussion, and dialogue about the role of AI in our personal and professional lives.

Join us for this celebration of Black History Month. This presentation will feature stories about some of the bold and amazing women who made history but were hidden from the history books. The program will include historic photographs, maps, and other resources from local history archives. And there will be plenty of time for audience discussion and recollections!

This program will explore the architecture of Ball State University, spanning from the first structure in the late 19th century to the Alexander M. Bracken Library in the 1970s, and will bring to light the stories of the seldom-known, history-making women who lived, worked, learned, and played within the walls of these iconic buildings as told through original architectural drawings, maps, photographs, and other one-of-a-kind resources of the Ball State University Libraries. Wine and appetizers will be served.
