Staff Update: March 2020 Visual Literacy Calendar, Smithsonian Open Access, End-of-Year Textbook Due Dates

March 2020 Calendar: Behold the Eyes of March - Visual Literacy (bit.ly/mar2020cal) - The first week of March is #WillEisnerWeek. The library has joined in the celebration (bit.ly/rst-eisner2020) to promote graphic novel literacy, free speech, and the sequential arts. Following this theme, the March calendar highlights visual literacy resources throughout the whole month. Print your own copy of the calendar to follow along. 

Resource Snack Time: Smithsonian Open Access (bit.ly/rst-smithCC) - The Smithsonian recently released nearly 3 million images under Creative Commons Zero (CC0) licensing and our students (and others) may now use them for creating projects.

End-of-Year Textbook Due Dates - The default due date for textbooks is Wednesday, 5/20/2020 - due dates are only different if teachers set a different date during checkout. For reference, see this summary of textbooks by department and due date. After textbook due dates, students will be invoiced for any textbooks not checked into Destiny. Students with outstanding invoices will not be eligible for early yearbook distribution.
