A reminder for our August 9th title, The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and Achievement by David Brooks.
This is the story of how success happens, told through the lives of one composite American couple, Harold and Erica. Drawing on a wealth of current research from numerous disciplines, Brooks takes Harold and Erica from infancy to old age, illustrating a fundamental new understanding of human nature along the way: The unconscious mind, it turns out, is not a dark, vestigial place, but a creative one, where most of the brain’s work gets done. This is the realm where character is formed and where our most important life decisions are made.
Open Books meets in the Library at 12 noon.
As of August 1, 2013, all databases containing Harvard Business Review (HBR) will experience a change for 500 of the articles. These articles will become read-only, and will be clearly marked as such (e.g. you can view an article on your computer, but cannot print or download it). For example, in Business Source Complete, there are currently 12,824 full-text articles from HBR, and 12,324 will continue to have the existing access functionality.
IU Southeast has online access to Harvard Business Review (HBR) primarily via our subscription to EBSCOhost’s Business Source Premier database. The Library also has a print subscription to Harvard Business Review, with holdings from volume 1 (1922) to the most current issue. Older issues are shelved downstairs; the most current issue is available in the reading area on the main floor.
Please also note that professors and instructors who wish to use HBR articles in class readings should work with Harvard Business Publishing for Educators. At the HBR site, professors can set up course reading lists where the students can purchase the articles needed for class assignments. Professors should not link to HBR articles in Business Source Premier in OnCourse, nor should they tell students that HBR articles in required readings can be found at the library. The statement below is found on every single HBR article in Business Source Premier. It strictly states that if the HBR content is to be used for course materials, then professors and students should purchase the content directly from Harvard Business Publishing.
Harvard Business Review and Harvard Business Publishing Newsletter content on EBSCOhost is licensed for the private individual use of authorized EBSCOhost users. It is not intended for use as assigned course material in academic institutions nor as corporate learning or training materials in businesses. Academic licensees may not use this content in electronic reserves, electronic course packs, persistent linking from syllabi or by any other means of incorporating the content into course resources.

Please join the IU Southeast Library in a reception for Nature Prints: Another Kind of Ukiyo-e works by Dr. Douglas Darnowski on July 26th 2013 from 12pm-1pm in the IU Southeast Library Art Gallery. Refreshments will be served.
About Nature Prints: Another Kind of Ukiyo-e Japanese art gives us the ukiyo-e or “Images of the Floating World.” These prints of gardens, temples, and other sites and occasions of the world’s fleeting pleasures are famous in East and West, with Hokusai’s “The Great Wave off Kanagawa” finding all sorts of uses in the West. The images in this show are doubly “Images of the Floating World.” They present fleeting pleasures, like the bright colors of spring pansies depicted using their own pigments, and many also display aquatic creatures, such as carnivorous plants which float in still ponds and whose brief existence brings marvels of natural engineering to the brief summer.
The Library will be CLOSED Thursday July 4 in observance of Independence Day. Regular Hours will resume on Friday July 5.
Please join us on Friday, July 12th at Noon in the IUS Library for a discussion of The Paris Wife by Paula McClain.
Hadley Richardson is a quiet twenty-eight-year-old who has all but given up on love and happiness—until she meets Ernest Hemingway. Though deeply in love, the Hemingways are ill prepared for the hard-drinking, fast-living, and free-loving life of Jazz Age Paris. As Ernest struggles to find the voice that will earn him a place in history and pours himself into the novel that will become The Sun Also Rises, Hadley strives to hold on to her sense of self as her roles as wife, friend, and muse become more challenging. Eventually they find themselves facing the ultimate crisis of their marriage—a deception that will lead to the unraveling of everything they’ve fought so hard for.
The IU Southeast Library Art Gallery is happy to host “Nature Prints: Another Kind of Ukiyo-e,” works by Dr. Douglas Darnowski. This show runs through July 26th 2013; please stop by and check out the exhibit.

Please join us next Friday, April 12th at noon at the IU Southeast Library in New Albany for a discussion of Blue Nights by Joan Didion. From one of our most powerful writers, a work of stunning frankness about losing a daughter.
Richly textured with memories from her own childhood and married life with her husband, John Gregory Dunne, and daughter, Quintana Roo, this new book by Joan Didion is an intensely personal and moving account of her thoughts, fears, and doubts regarding having children, illness and growing old.
As she reflects on her daughter’s life and on her role as a parent, Didion grapples with the candid questions that all parents face, and contemplates her age, something she finds hard to acknowledge, much less accept. Blue Nights—the long, light evening hours that signal the summer solstice, “the opposite of the dying of the brightness, but also its warning”—like The Year of Magical Thinking before it, is an iconic book of incisive and electric honesty, haunting and profound.
The Library will be open the normal operating hours during Spring Break, including weekends. Reference help will be available during open hours. There will be no Writing Center consultant during Spring Break (March 23 - 31).
While the Library's proxy server is down, please go to the following link to learn how to access our article databases http://libguides.ius.edu/atozdatabases. If you have any questions or problems, please call Reference-- 812.941.2489.

Please join us this Friday, January 11th at noon at the IU Southeast Library in New Albany for a discussion of Cleopatra by Stacy Schiff
The Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer brings to life the most intriguing woman in the history of the world: Cleopatra, the last queen of Egypt.
Her palace shimmered with onyx, garnets, and gold, but was richer still in political and sexual intrigue. Above all else, Cleopatra was a shrewd strategist and an ingenious negotiator.
Though her life spanned fewer than forty years, it reshaped the contours of the ancient world. She was married twice, each time to a brother. She waged a brutal civil war against the first when both were teenagers. She poisoned the second. Ultimately she dispensed with an ambitious sister as well; incest and assassination were family specialties. Cleopatra appears to have had sex with only two men. They happen, however, to have been Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, among the most prominent Romans of the day. Both were married to other women. Cleopatra had a child with Caesar and--after his murder--three more with his protégé. Already she was the wealthiest ruler in the Mediterranean; the relationship with Antony confirmed her status as the most influential woman of the age. The two would together attempt to forge a new empire, in an alliance that spelled their ends. Cleopatra has lodged herself in our imaginations ever since.
