November 9, 2009 is the 20th Anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall. To commemorate this event, I have created a LibGuide highlighting resources available at Mississippi State University and on the Internet about the history of the Berlin Wall. Additionally, in cooperation with the German Missions in the United States, we have books and pamphlets concerning the Berlin Wall and Germany available in the Government Documents, Microforms, and Current Journals Department at the Mitchell Memorial Library.
Additionally, the Mitchell Memorial Library will host an event on November 9th, from 4:30 - 6:00 in the Grisham Room. Five of MSU's professors will each speak about the History of the Berlin Wall, the Cold War, and the lasting significance of this event.

The Reference Department at the Mitchell Memorial Library, as part of our continued service, outreach, and engagement to our community has created a new LibGuide: Living in a Recession. Christine Fletcher, Judy Li, and I have created a virtual Recession Survival Skills tool-kit that provides: budget tips, gardening, finding grants and scholarships, and other public concerns.

We will continue updating the LibGuide over the next few weeks and months as more information becomes available.
