The Office of Student Engagement & Leadership is hosting a day of service project on Sept. 10th from 10am-1pm
The 9/11 Day National Day of Service service project will give you the opportunity to help assemble hundreds of food packs and hygiene packs for local community. This event will be hosted on September 10th in the first floor of the MU Student Center.
For those who don’t know what MULSA is, MULSA is the MU LIbraries Staff Association. One of the positions is the courtesy chair and the chair often coordinates well wishes for employees going through life events like weddings, babies, hospitilizations, etc. If you or another of your coworkers is going through a life event, you can send me an email at meadowcroftt@missouri.edu
Another one of my duties as MULSA chair is to send well wishes on employee birthdays. This is entirely voluantary. If you’d like, please fill out this completely voluntary form by Sept. 30th.

Do you want to join a book club but prefer to choose your own book?
Join the BYOBook Club on the first Wednesday of the month! Read any book for the month’s (optional) prompt and chat with other readers about what you chose. This is a great way to discover new books and authors—or rant about pesky plot holes.
You can find book recommendations and more on our BYOBook Club guide: libraryguides.missouri.edu/byobook-club
This club is sponsored by MU Libraries’ Outreach and Engagement Committee.
We asked Mizzou Librarians to tell us what their favorite read of the summer was and of course they had a lot to share!
In this list, you will find beach reads and dense reads. Fiction and non-fiction. This list has a little for everyone, no matter your reading tastes.
You can access the list using this link.
Happy reading!
