Thanksgiving Holiday Hours
The Library will be closed November 25th through November 29th for Thanksgiving. The 25th is a furlough day mandated by the CCC Board
of Trustees; therefore; the College will be closed that day.
Database Spotlight: World Digital Library
“In no single place but the World Digital Library (WDL) would one find a gathering of the globe’s earliest cultural treasures-the first
great novel in world literature (believed to have been written by a Japanese woman at the turn of the 11th century), an 1180 liturgical
work considered the most important and beautiful Serbian manuscript, a 1473 astronomical work on measuring and keeping time, in Arabic.
…the new international cultural-heritage website (www.wdl.org) that contains works by many noted poets, mathematicians, theologians,
philosophers, astronomers, cartographers, and historians. In addition to rare books, maps, and manuscripts, the site also contains
cultural heritage in more modern formats-films, sound recordings, and prints and photographs.”(excerpt from The Library of Congress
Information Bulletin, May 2009) There are links to this website on the Library’s Delicious links and Facebook posts.
