Money Smart Week

April 23-30, 2016 is Money Smart Week



Money Smart Week is a public awareness campaign created by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago in 2002. It's designed to help consumers better manage their finances. 

Here is a link to the resource page. 

Also, stop by the library. We have some really good money smart brochures for you. We even have one that includes advice on financing a car. 

April 10-16, 2016 is National Library Week

This year's National Library Week theme is Libraries Transform. Libraries are so much more than books on a shelf in a room. Libraries can take you beyond physical boundaries. We live in a digital age. People need technical skills and resources in order to thrive. You can have access to a lot of technology for free at your library, and chances are that there will be classes offered on how to use it. 

If you haven't seen our own TecknOWLogy Nest in the Athens Campus library, you should check it out. We have 3-D printers, Arduinos, Raspberry Pis, robots, and so much more. Its purpose is to provide current ATC students, faculty, and staff a safe space to learn and explore these technologies.

Stop by and visit. Celebrate libraries with us.

Check it out!

All these campaign shenanigans making your head spin? You are not alone. We have created a 2016 election guide to help you (and us) try and sort it all out. This guide will be updated on a regular basis.
