Copley Library Annual Report 2017-2018

New School Tours and Outreach Activities

This year, Copley added tours for community high schools and middle schools to our list of outreach activities. In November, librarian Christopher Marcum welcomed a group of more than 30 high school seniors from Magnolia High School in Anaheim, California, for a tour of Copley Library and a brief presenta tion on the services and resources provided to USD students. In March, Marcum also hosted a group of students from San Diego’s High Tech Middle School. All students from each visit left with some Copley swag and hopefully a little extra motivation to consider USD when it is their time to apply to college. All of our faculty and staff had fun engaging with the young students and look forward to leading more tours in the years to come. Other outreach activities of note included our weeklong celebration of Banned Books Week last fall, as well as our Movie Night and Food Drive, Faculty Favorites Book Display and our Study Break on the Lawn events. We look forward to another great year of collaboration and want to thank all of our outreach partners on campus.
