Unwind the Mind – Faculty give your brain a break with DePaul University Libraries' newest collection.
DePaul's
Loop and Lincoln Park libraries are unveiling a new recreational
reading collection called "Unwind the Mind," where you'll find
contemporary fiction, popular non-fiction and best sellers.
The "Unwind the Mind: Popular Reading Collection"
will help DePaul Libraries meet
increasing student demand for leisure reading materials to supplement
our academic collections.
Because we want to keep the collection current, we're using a rental
service that will enable us to rotate out items to keep things fresh.
The collection will be available on the main floors of the Loop and
Lincoln Park libraries until the end of the academic year as trial-run –
come in and check it out!
The collection features non-fiction books such as Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game, Shiny
Objects: Why We Spend Money We don't Have in Search of Happiness We
Can't Buy, And Nothing But the Truthiness: The Rise (and Further Rise)
of Stephen Colbert, Outliers, The Chicago Homegrown Cookbook,
Food Rules: An Eater's Manual, The 3rd Alternative: Solving Life's Most
Difficult Problems and Life on the Line: A Chef's Story of Chasing Greatness, Facing Death and Redefining the Way We Eat. Fiction titles include The Marriage Plot, The Leftovers, Caleb's Crossing, and Heart of the Matter. Click here for a full list of titles.
Many thanks to Jennifer Rodriguez, who won our naming competition. Her
"Unwind the Mind" slogan was voted most likely to help you relax and
read. Thanks also to Julie Froslan who spent many hours poring over
Adobe Illustrator to design the poster.
