McAuliffe Evening Book Discussion: “Library of the Unwritten” by A.J. Hackwith

Many years ago, Claire was named Head Librarian of the Unwritten Wing—a neutral space in Hell where all the stories unfinished by their authors reside. Her job consists mainly of repairing and organizing books, but also of keeping an eye on restless stories that risk materializing as characters and escaping the library. When a Hero escapes from his book and goes in search of his author, Claire must track and capture him with the help of former muse and current assistant Brevity and nervous demon courier Leto.

Lifelong Learning Lecture: Forest Bathing thumbnail Photo

Lifelong Learning Lecture: Forest Bathing

Presented by Dr. Kelly Ann Kolodny, Professor of Education, FSU

In this presentation, Dr. Kolodny introduces participants to shinrin-yoku, which translates to forest bathing. Developed in Japan in 1980s, the practice of forest bathing recognizes the physical, mental, and spiritual benefits that unfold from spending increased time in the natural world.

The growing practice of forest bathing has resulted in hundreds of scientific research studies, as well as many countries establishing connected public health policies. In an effort to learn more about this practice, Dr. Kolodny spent a year studying with an international cohort of the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy, resulting in her becoming a certified forest therapy guide.

McAuliffe Morning Book Discussion: “Lessons in Chemistry” by Bonnie Garmus thumbnail Photo

McAuliffe Morning Book Discussion: “Lessons in Chemistry” by Bonnie Garmus

Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.
