YOUR Library Celebrates the World Cup!

Alexandria Campus Library celebrated the World Cup from June 9th - July 9th with posters, an interactive poll, displays of books on the World Cup history, schedules of the matches, and more.

* actually advanced to the Quarter Finals, plus Ukraine which received no votes in our poll.
