Trailblazer Reads: Reviews/Winners

The library curates the Trailblazer Reads program where faculty, staff, and students can recommend books they’ve enjoyed.

The library curates the Trailblazer Reads program where faculty, staff, and students can recommend books they’ve enjoyed. Students can then check out and read one of these books for one entry into the drawing for $70.00 toward the purchase of a textbook at the university bookstore and lunch with the Library Dean. There is no limit to the number of books you can read and enter in the drawing.

For five additional entries, submit your written comments about the book to the library Circulation Desk.

The library does the drawing at the beginning of every spring semester. If your name is chosen, the dean of the library would like to buy you lunch and purchase one of the textbooks that you will need for the Spring term (textbook cost up to $70).

We would encourage you to recommend a book you’ve loved to our Trailblazer Reads list here.
