Eddings exhibit
January 5 – April 20, 2010
DAVID EDDINGS:Â Creator of Fantasy Worlds
David Eddings ’54 presented his papers to Reed in early 2009. Upon his death several months later, his bequest of $18 million dollars also came to Reed. Eddings’ immense popularity as a fantasy writer was earned by the 24 fantasy titles published between 1982 and 2006, and his many thousands of fans are found worldwide. Selections from his papers are on display along with every book he published. The exhibit is in the library’s flat exhibit cases and the reference area wall case.
New LexisNexis interface
LexisNexis Academic is releasing an update to their interface and search forms in mid-January. You can test drive the new interface now. If you’d like to read about the changes here, visit the LexisNexis wiki.
The content of LexisNexis won’t change. Contact Dena Hutto with questions or comments.
