Back to School!<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the News: <\/em>It\u2019s Back-to-School time at Florida Atlantic University. We welcome new freshmen and transfer students as well as those returning for their second, third, and even last (!) year. Of course, we can\u2019t forget to welcome new faculty, too. Take a look at some of the books the library has on college life. Some of them are electronic, but many more are in the \u201cold school\u201d paper format. Settle down with one when time permits and enjoy the rest of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
