Who doesn't love horses?

Here's some impromptu white-board art from two of our visitors in the library this afternoon. We love it! Reminds us of some of our favorite stories, some of which are available for checkout:

• My Friend Flicka 
• The Red Pony 
• Black Beauty 
• Misty of Chincoteague 
• The Black Stallion
• The Saddle Club series
• Seabiscuit
• Hoofprints: Horse Poems

Guess who just won a $50 Barnes & Noble gift card?

Karen Berry, that's who!

Karen generously took the time to read the inaugural issue of the library 'zine, and then answered a few questions about her use of the library. She was one of 61 Marygrove College students, staff and faculty members who took the survey and were entered to win the gift card.

Congratulations, and thank you, Karen, for helping us measure how we can best serve our community!

"Very impressed by all of you in the library"

"Finally got a chance to read this first issue [of the Marygrove Library 'zine].  Very impressed by all of you in the library.  Please pass along to the others that I think you are all awesome!!!!  Keep up your good work and efforts to improve what Marygrove has to offer."

No surprise - Andrea helps us maintain our standard of excellence

A comment we received today:

"I am a faculty member @ Wayne State University and needed to find a book that our library does not carry. Andrea Hanserd was extremely helpful. She pointed me in the right direction and helped me make copies. This kind of service is not often found in most libraries. You are smart to have her. Thank you. Dr. Monica White"

Good going, Andrea!
