National Library Week (April 4 – 10, 2021) is a time to celebrate our nation’s libraries, library workers’ contributions and promote library use and support.
The theme for National Library Week 2021 is “Welcome to Your Library.”
During the pandemic, library workers continue to exceed their communities’ demands and adapt resources and services to meet their users’ needs during these challenging times. Although much of the focus on campus has been on the forthcoming new library building (set to open in 2024!), HPU’s current libraries still have a lot to offer students. Whether you visit in person or virtually, HPU libraries offer endless opportunities to transform lives through education and lifelong learning.
