It’s going to be an exciting academic year of change at the UAHuntsville Library in the 2011 – 2012 academic year. We have a number of new features and resources this year, some which are already here and some that are coming soon.
We hope to have this all installed in the building during Fall Break, and are planning an Open House the week of Homecoming at UAHuntsville. More information will be coming, but we plan on having a free concert in the building or just outside with local Indie Folk / Acoustic band Ashlyn Maine.
Read more about our new furniture at our earlier blog post, and become a fan of Ashlyn Maine on their Facebook page.

Drinks range in price from sixty cents to $1.25, and snacks are available for up to a dollar.
