Mr. Luck has started a book club via social media. He plans to introduce a book he enjoyed as a child for younger readers, as well as a book for more seasoned readers. According to his web site he’ll introduce a new book in stages that correspond with the NFL schedule: off-season, mini-camp, summer training and pre-season. He plans to bring in guest athletes to take over until after the Super Bowl. Participants may follow along on Facebook, Instagram and/or Twitter using #ALBookClub.</p></div></div></div> Thu, 05 May 2016 20:26:58 +0000 Kathryn M Kerns 99984 at https://library.stanford.edu New video tutorials for Searchworks and database learners https://library.stanford.edu/blogs/stanford-libraries-blog/2016/04/new-video-tutorials-searchworks-and-database-learners <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>This month, Stanford Libraries posted two new videos on its YouTube channel.
