I love Mizzou libraries because it provides many resources, a great place to study, Bookmark, and no one judges you if you have a mental breakdown at 11 pm on Tuesday - Cannotatedbib

I love Mizzou libraries because it’s such a welcoming environment. I can cry over my Capstone research project and everyone just *understands* (and the databases and helpful librarians) - Jillian Frasher

Without our amazing librarians faculty like me couldn’t do our jobs. Special shout outs to interlibrary loan, special collections, and the awesome negotiators who maintain our access to academic journals. Libraries are essential to research and teaching! Ps. #Fundthelibrary - Daniel A. Hoyt

#NationalLibraryWeek When I entered #Mizzou, as a first-generation college student, Ellis Library was this grand and hopeful and vital place. Thank you, @MizzouLibraries
