Langsdale Library is celebrating Halloween by hosting a masquerade contest in October to coincide with our promotional READ posters. You and your disguise will grace a READ poster to be displayed in the library. It’s a great way to celebrate the season, to wow the UB community with your creativity, and to show off your love of books. Also, prizes will be awarded for best costume! To enter:
1. Select a book from Langsdale’s collection. Search our databases (http://langsdale.ubalt.edu/catalog/index.htm) or ask a reference librarian to help you locate the book you want.
2. Create a costume that relates to the book somehow. Creativity and humor are encouraged!
3. Either photograph yourself in full costume holding up or enjoying your chosen book, or come into the library in costume to have your photo taken by Langsdale Circulation Specialist Erin Toepfner. E-mail her (etoepfner@ubalt.edu) or call her (410.837.4208) to make an appointment.
4. Wait for the winner(s) to be announced at the end of October. Even if you don’t win, you’ll still be on a READ poster wearing your incredible disguise.
