National Library Week: 2024

Pence is Celebrating National Library Week with fine amnesty and activities that enter you into a drawing for Amazon gift cards and books

It's National Library Week! Get ready to explore, become inspired, and connect with your library this National Library Week. Pence Law Library is there for you, all the way to the finish line. To celebrate National Library Week 2024, we asked our AUWCL faculty & staff to tell us what they've been reading, watching, listening to, and doing over the last year. Which titles will you add to your summer reading/watching/listening/to do list?
