What am I reading in ScholarWorks? February 2024

Scholarly Communications Librarian, Jessica Ryan, highlights an item in ScholarWorks each month.
One thing all people must agree about Smith is the loveliness of our campus. When I was a student in my last semester, I indulged myself by taking two excellent and edifying classes well outside of my major: a horticultural lab in which Smith’s botanical museum of a campus was featured, and a geology class exploring the local landscape. So try to imagine my delight for this month’s What Am I Reading in ScholarWorks? as I tempt you all with a story map created by Geosciences professors John Brady and Bosiljka Glumac: “Smith Campus Rocks: Rocks of Smith College Buildings and Campus.”
To view this work in Smith ScholarWorks, visit: “Smith Campus Rocks: Rocks of Smith College Buildings and Campus”
And while you're poking around ScholarWorks check out their other story map on the geology of Northampton, “Geology Downtown.” These are quite simply, beautifully produced learning objects—digital explorations of the rocks that surround those of us lucky enough to have spent time on campus and in Northampton. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
