SUMMARY:Exhibition:Muted Volumes: Book-Objects\, Patterned Papers\, and the Closed Stacks of Buhr
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit in the Clark Library rotunda focuses on handmade decorative patterned papers when exploring books stored at the library's Buhr Offsite Shelving Facility. Decorative paper\, noticed when walking through the stack's aisles or surprising you when you casually flip through a book\, can really catch your eye. But because the Buhr stacks are closed from browsing\, the density and dimensionality of its nearly 3 million books are reduced to title searches on a screen.\n\nAs a response to these reflections\, artist and library staff member Stephanie Osorio shares her handbound unopenable book-objects as symbolic stand-ins for forgotten books at Buhr — the books that don’t get a chance to be noticed. Along with the book-objects are the carved woodblocks that made prints to decorate them. Some books from Buhr that inspired this project with their original decorated patterned papers will also be on display.\n\nView the exhibit anytime the Hatcher Library is open\, and join us for an opening reception on Thursday\, May 14th\, 5pm - 6:30pm\, for an opportunity to hear from the artist and engage with the book-objects.

SUMMARY:Other:Wonder Walk: Identifying What's Around You with iNaturalist
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered what that flower is\, or what kind of bee just landed on it? Noticing what lives around you is the first small step toward understanding it. This approach helps researchers track the health of whole ecosystems at MBGNA and throughout Michigan's unique ecosystems. Making these observations can also be a free and fun solo\, group\, or family activity! We’ll use iNaturalist\,  a free app that lets you photograph and identify the plants\, animals\, and fungi you find\, learn about them\, and contribute your observations to a global community science effort. Join iNaturalist Ambassador\, MBGNA Education team intern\, and EEB major Austin Melancon for an introduction to the app and a walk to put your new skill to work. Whatever kind of organism catches your eye! Bring your smartphone with the free iNaturalist app installed\, or get help downloading it.  Those without a smartphone are welcome to share with MBGNA staff to see how iNaturalist is used.
