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.”
They’re baaaack…..PINECONE TURKEYS!!!!!!!
Starting at 12pm this Thursday 11/17 and Friday 11/18, you can stop by the Library Service Desk and create your own feathered, freaky friend!!! There will be googly-eyes galore, fabulous feather and all the hot glue you can handle! Please stop by and make one of these beauties!

It’s our favorite time of year! Yes, that’s right. It’s turkey time!
Starting at 12pm this Thursday 11/21 and Friday 11/22, you can stop by the Library Service Desk and create your own feathered friend to bring home to Mom (or back to your study carrel). We’ll have a variety of materials out so you can create anything your heart desires, from the simple and majestic hand turkey (our personal favorite) to some 3D pinecone poultry.
Thanksgiving is fast approaching, and what better time to dive into some short stories for the long weekend. These are satisfying tales in small portions which you could read on your trip home, and that don’t require much commitment. We have numerous short story collections in our Leisure Reading section on the 4th floor for you to choose from, that would be ideal for just such an occasion:

If there is a book that you’d like to read this holiday season, which you don’t see in our catalogue, please let us know by recommending a purchase.

Don’t have time to delve into a craft?
Just lend a hand–we only need the outline!–to the giant library turkey we plan to make.
See you there!
Thanks to all the students, staff, and faculty who contributed to our glorious library turkey!

-@growingwisdom to @BonjourParis_ and me on @GBHNews this morning (Dave is not a fan of Groundhog Day, in case you were wondering)GSBS faculty member @lindenhu_md and alum James Phelan have a new paper out in @MicrobioSoc. They talk about factors in the survival of Borrelia burgdorferi, which causes Lyme disease, in ticks and mice. @TuftsLyme https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/micro/10.1099/mic.0.001286
Something to keep in mind, particularly for active users! Also interesting if you're thinking of buying an elderly loved one an Apple watch for fall detection
Something about the way skiers accelerate and stop, or jostle, seems to set Apple’s crash-detection technology on high alert. And skiers, helmeted and wrapped in clothing, often fail to detect the warning or the call from the 911 dispatcher. https://nyti.ms/3HoWSZ6
