A Whole New Mind!: May 2009

Welcome and Purpose

Welcome to the iRead blog. iRead is a program that was started by Cumberland University's Vise Library in Fall 2008. Our current book selection is A Whole New Mind by Daniel Pink. We would like to give special thanks to Lucinda Scanlon to creating the banner at the top of the page and granting us permission to use it. It's not too late to sign up to be a part of this iRead session! Even if you can't attend meetings, you are still welcome to participate virtually. If you are interested in joining the group and receiving a free copy of the book, please email Eloise Hitchcock (ehitchcock@cumberland.edu). If you would like to leave a comment on any of the postings, just click on the link at the bottom of the posting to the left of the envelope. Enjoy!

Happy summer to all of you! Thank you to everyone who participated in the first year of iRead, both in person and virtually. We would especially like to thank all of our fabulous guest speakers who made our job easier (planning sessions for all of the different sections would have been a nightmare!). We wanted to give everyone an update about next year's program. Our 2009-10 selection for iRead is Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson. We have started a blog already: http://drink3cups.blogspot.com/, so be sure to subscribe to it for updates!
