  • NSDLClick for more information. The Classic Articles in Context (CAC) project of the National Science Digital Library (NSDL) seeks to integrate landmark works of scientific inquiry into dynamic learning spaces for teachers and learners. To achieve our goal of illustrating science as a process that builds, and often turns, on discovery and replication expressed in the archival literature of empirical findings, the Library works with publishers to make the original, full texts of select "classic" articles available to students whether or not their institution holds a subscription to the journals in which they appeared.

potteryFunctional pottery created by Wilda Swift is currently on display in the Foothills Library, through November. Wilda wants her pots to be used, so they are made to be tough, strong, and functional. Her stoneware pottery can be used in the oven, dishwasher, and microwave. Her glazes are completely safe for use with all foods, and she describes her pieces as being, “about good food and welcome, comfort, and companionship.”

 

sticker artCurrently on display at the FL Library, through November, are “paintings” by Barry “Stickerman” Snyder. Barry uses produce stickers to create his “sticker mosaic” or produce art. He has created portraits of Frank Zappa and John Lennon, as well as his take on the well-known painting, “American Gothic.”
