The University Libraries are glad to announce this year’s Library Open Day. This year’s Open Day will be a tribute to AUB’s 150th anniversary and as usual, will include many games and competitions and a number of prizes, vouchers, and gifts.
We invite all the student body to participate in this day of fun and winning.
When? Thursday, September 17th, 2015
Where? Jafet Library
Faculty members, Research Assistants, and Graduates are invited to attend workshops offered by visiting speakers in the Antoun Ghattas Karam e-classroom in Jafet.
Below is the full schedule, along with the designated gifts and location of the games, in addition to the e-classroom’s full schedule.
You are invited to meet us at 9:30 am at Jafet’s main entrance to join us in a memorable group photo on the Green Oval. This will only take 30 minutes of your time but will be a memory and a team-building exercise to remember forever.
