April is National Poetry Month. This month, we will be profiling a UPEI Poet each week, to honor published poets with past or current connections to our university community. Our first featured poet is UPEI Professor Emeritus Frank Ledwell (1930-2008).

The Indigenous Perspectives on Climate Change course (ACC2030/IKE2030) will be hosting an exhibition on April 3rd at 3:30pm in the Robertson Library Lobby. The exhibition will showcase creative pieces by students based on their reflections of Knowledge-Keeper Elder Gary Joe Augustine's, from Elsipogtog First Nation, presentation.

For more information, please reach out to the instructor and coordinator: Margaret Augustine (maugustine@upei.ca) and Donald Moses (dmoses@upei.ca).

The Library has a free trial through May 31, 2024 to a set of about 300 streaming videos within the Sage Research Methods platform called Diversifying and Decolonizing Research .

This is a very new package so there may be some hiccups on the platform in the first few weeks.

Some examples of titles included are:

The Robertson Library will be closed on Friday, March 29 and Monday, April 1. We will be open from 10am to 5pm on Saturday the 30th and Sunday the 31st, and we resume normal hours on April 2.
