The solar eclipse is going to happen on April 8 and the library invites you to join in with a celebration. This will be the last significant eclipse event in the region for roughly twenty-years! Make note, the eclipse will happen no matter the weather so while there is hope that it turns out ok, no guarantees can be made on that front. The library will still be handing out glasses and snacks while supplies last. The library will start handing out things at 12:30pm with peak coverage (around 90%, here) to be at 2:01pm.
The second part of Maker Tuesdays will also take place: Intro to 3D Modeling (April 9 @ 6pm). Note: last week's class was canceled due to the weather, so this is actually the first one to be held.
Also this week, Designing for the Cricut (April 11 @ 3pm). There are lots of crafts that can be made with the help of the Cricut and this workshop will help get you started.

Have You Tried StackMap?
The Salmon Library has signed up for StackMaps and StackMaps Explore. This is an online tool that makes it easier for patrons to find what they need in the library. Highlighting important areas, commonly used services, and subjects it can be used to locate what you need faster. Try it out and see what you think! Over the next few weeks it will be integrated more and more with the website and Primo Pathfinder to help point you to items on the shelfs (i.e. stacks, hence the name). If you have any feedback, let us know at refdesk@uah.edu.
Thank for the Help!
The Salmon Library (and its webmaster, Doug Bolden) would like to thank all the students who have signed up to volunteer for the Website Usability Study. We have had a great turnout for this and though the library is in the middle of the process, the feedback has already been very helpful.
