LABOR
DAY
Lafayette Parish residents are about to add a new verb to their vocabulary: “geek.” When used as a verb, to “geek” something means to be passionate about it and to want to learn more and do more because of it. We at the Lafayette Public Library System want everyone to “geek” our libraries as much as we do, which is why we are joining the nationwide Geek the Library campaign. This community‐based public awareness campaign highlights what people are passionate about and how libraries can support those passions. Our libraries really do have something for everyone, and no matter what you “geek,” you’re sure to find something at our libraries that helps you grow that passion for that subject.
Geek the Library features local educational material that introduces “geek” as a verb, and encourages the public to talk about what they “geek”—whether it’s engineering, superheroes or art. The public awareness campaign illustrates the fact that everyone is passionate about something—everyone “geeks” something—and that the library supports them all. In just this newsletter alone, you’ll find several upcoming library programs that will help you explore the topics you’re most interested in. (Look for the “I geek...” graphics throughout this newsletter.)
To learn more about the Geek the Library campaign and how you can get active and support your library, visit www.geekthelibrary.org.
Create your own “bad” art and enter our Fall Bad Art Fête. Your art must be original. Create your art at home or create something at the Jefferson Street Branch craft table in the children’s area of the library. One entry per person. Art must be “family friendly” and no larger than poster-size. Art can be submitted for display starting Monday, September 30 through noon on Friday, October 11 at the Jefferson Street Branch.
