Breakfast and a Book - Libraries

NextPrev

In Fall 2006, IUP Libraries started the Breakfast-and-a-Book speaker series to recognize faculty who have recently published books, and to share the content of those books with the university community.

Breakfast-and-a-Book sessions are held during the last week of each of the three full months in the Fall and Spring semesters. Administration, faculty, staff, and students are welcome to attend, and a continental breakfast is provided by IUP Libraries.

Videos of the sessions are available starting with the November 2007 event. Click on the images or the titles below below to watch (.wmv files require Windows Media Player).

For more information on the Breakfast and a Book program, or to find out how to become a presenter, please contact Dr. Kelly Heider (kheider@iup.edu), program coordinator.
