Robert H. Goddard Library at Clark University

Clark University's main library is a cutting-edge facility for research, teaching and learning by centralizing academic and research support services.

We're closed tomorrow in observance of Juneteenth, but when we return, come check out one of our books about the history of Juneteenth, Emancipation, and Black American thinkers, writers, and artists. PS: Did you know that the Juneteenth flag was created by a Boston activist?

The library is closed tomorrow, so one day early: check out our Pride Month display! We have a great selection set up right at the entrance of the library, and anyone is free to check the books out. The QR code links to a guide to our ebooks, where we have even more LGBTQ+ scholarship and literature available online!

Have any suggestions for titles? Let us know!

Did you know the concept of “wind chill” was developed by Paul Siple, a Clark Ph.D in Geography? You can read more here: https://clarknow.clarku.edu/2023/01/05/paul-allman-siple-wind-chill/ (also it will be very cold today and tomorrow. The Library is open and warm)

Pro-tip: Arriving here at 8am basically means you get a library to yourself for a little while.

Guess what’s open until 8pm today, warm, and remarkably uncrowded (for the moment)?

We’ve seen some commentary on social media about best places on campus to see sunsets. Everybody who said somewhere other than the 5th floor of the Library is wrong. We take no pleasure in reporting this.
