Every two years, Langsdale Library and the Office of the Provost recognize the book publishing accomplishments of our faculty. This year, Faculty Authors is on Wednesday, October 23, from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m., at Langsdale, on the second floor. Light refreshments will be provided at the start, with remarks by Provost Joe Wood beginning at 4 p.m. Each faculty member with a book publication since the last event will be recognized with a framed copy of their book cover. Langsdale also will keep one framed copy to display in the library. The event is free and open to the entire UB community.
Check out books by faculty authors in our catalog. We’re always adding to the list!
