Andrew Kiste, one of our reference triage student workers, had an article published in the premiere issue of Orlando Attractions Magazine. This magazine showcases different Orlando area theme parks and attractions, and is published six times annually. Andrew is a self-professed Disney fanatic and also wanted to be part of the magazine community. Since he enjoys running, it was only logical for him to write about his experiences during the 2007 Walt Disney World Marathon this past January. His feature article is entitled, “Marathon with the Mouse – A Dream Come True for Disney Runners” and is accompanied by pictures. Andrew said, “When I began writing my article, I was just stoked that something that I wrote would be published in a magazine that millions of people may be reading!” He says that fact that he was paid was an added bonus!

Congratulations, Andrew!!!

Grand Valley State University recently celebrated its fourteenth annual Shakespeare Festival, which included a student competition for creative, critical, historical or scholarly projects relating to Shakespeare, his times, and the Renaissance (1450-1650 AD). This year, for the first time, the festival committee set up a separate category for work done by graduate students. “From Mourning to Morning: Love and Grief in John Donne’s ‘A Nocturnal upon Saint Lucy’s Day, Being the Shortest Day,’” written by Library Acquisitions Associate Ann Hayward, was awarded first prize.
