From Sugartree Productions (Zach Daulton), a clever video about that age-old question: books or computers?

What happens when you talk on your cell phone in the library?

With TWC growing so fast, we’re all feeling a bit cramped. Big classes, full parking lots, and lines in the cafeteria are just a few of the things we deal with as our college gets bigger and better. Here at the library we have had to get creative about finding places for new books and more computers.
But no matter how cramped we are for space, the library won’t be getting movable, compact shelving. Because it’s expensive? Difficult to browse for the things you want? The building structure won’t support it? Oh no! Really, it’s because it might decide that it would rather do ballet.

Sure, the library is great for help with all those papers you have to write, if you want a quiet place to study, or if you desperately need some hot cocoa, coffee, or tea from the cafe. But did you know the library can make you a rock star? Check out this video from students at the University of Pittsburgh.
Still need proof that being smart rocks? Ask rock star astronomer Brian May. This is not to be confused, of course, with Slacker Astronomy, which also provides hours of entertainment (with the added benefit of giving you the ability to sound like a science pro).
