Hello all!

Wishing everyone a successful and peaceful end to your semester/exam period. The Hirsh Health Sciences Library will have some adjusted hours for this holiday/winter season: on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week, the Library Service Desk will close at 8pm. On Thursday, we will be closing at 5pm. The service desk will remain closed from Friday, December 22nd until Tuesday, January 2nd, when we will resume at 7:30am with our normal hours. The MedEd building will be open for tap access during this time, but the service desk will be closed, so feel free to reach out to hhsl@tufts.edu with any requests for assistance, and we will get back to you when we return to the office. Have a fun and safe break, and see you all again in the new year!

We will also be providing you with free coffee on Saturday around 4pm. Take a quick break, come down to the 4th floor, and commiserate while you caffeinate!

So, whether you’re trying to figure out why there are so many wild turkeys in Massachusetts or simply enjoying eating the bird, the Hirsh Health Sciences Library team wishes you some rest, relaxation, and gratitude this long weekend. See you Sunday!

Veterans’ Day honors the service of U.S. military veterans. Originally called Armistice Day, it first marked the ending of World War I with an agreement signed between Germany and the Allies on the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918. John McCrae’s “In Flanders Field” captures the feeling of seeing poppies growing out of a scarred battlefield; they have since become a symbol of remembrance. You can read McCrae’s poem online.

Enjoy your long weekend!

The Day of Turkey is upon us, and we hope that you are leaning into an extra-long weekend of relaxation, reconnection, and food. Lots of food.

Your Hirsh Health Sciences Library team will also be taking some time to relax and unwind (and eat), we will have reduced hours this coming week.

The Library will close at 5:00 pm on Wednesday November 23, and remain closed until Sunday November 27 at noon. Building hours will remain the same.

We hope you enjoy some rest and relaxation over the holiday. Maybe get a head start with this Washington Post article “This farm offers turkey cuddling. No, really.”
