“Long Night Against Procrastination”





The poster above was from an event held on Tuesday, April 30, 2019 in the Logue Library.  Our new Technical Services & Information Literacy Librarian, Kelly Liberona developed an event that was a first at Chestnut Hill College was called, “Long Night Against Procrastination.” 



This party involved the following:  a therapy dog, along with faculty who were available to help students with their assignments, massages to relieve stress and plenty of food and tasty snacks. 
The event was separated in two parts.  From 11:30 am until 1:00 pm, free massages were available for staff and students.

The second part of this event according to the Logue Library's Facebook page mentioned that, "from 6p-2a Tuesday, April 30th for FREE fun and study time.  We'll have food courtesy of out Alumni Association, The Bagel House, and Bruno's; therapy dog, P!nky, accompanied by her owner Polly, our Director of Security; study help by librarians, Writing Department faculty, and Writing Center/various subject peer tutors; activities; and prizes, including gift certificates generously donated by @chestnuthillbrewingcompany, @thecedarshouse, and @chcbkstore!! Don't miss out!"

This event was very successful with over 50 people attending this, “Anti-Procrastination Party.”
But now it’s time to discuss what the library catalog has to offer with Procrastination and Study Skills.
   


   






Now, let’s talk about the Logue Library

Our catalog contains some books to help students who are indeed true Procrastinators.

Hopefully the resources shown below will be helpful.
