June 19th marks the historic holiday known as Juneteenth when in 1865 a Union general spread news in Texas of that enslaved Africans were free. North Carolina recognized Juneteenth as a state holiday in 2007, but the holiday was not federally recognized until President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act on June 17, 2021. Did you know the NC Department of Natural and Cultural Resources offers a Juneteenth website? It offers comprehensive historical resources on African
Hello, hello, hello! If you haven't heard yet, the Durham Tech Library has started a podcast! It's called Out Loud in the Library. You can listen and subscribe through Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, and more. I'm a big podcast listener myself so I thought I would share some of my favorites with you today. Obviously, my podcast is the best one. But once you finish listening to mine I'm sure you'll want more podcast content. So, listen to episode 2 of Out Loud in the Library

Hello, all you wonderful people out there! June is Audiobook Month, and I'm here to tell you why you should consider audiobooks if you don't already listen to them and where to find more audiobooks if you do. Audiobook listening is on the rise. People listen to them to make a commute more pleasant, to distract themselves from folding laundry, or hear an author read their book the way they meant it to be heard. Also, it's easy and fun! Let's get something out of the way. There are people out
Title: Moonglow Author: Michael Chabon Genre: biography, fiction (both, believe it or not!) Read Great Things 2020 Categories: book with a one-word title, bildungsroman (maybe) Why did you choose to read this book? I have read four of Chabon's other novels; I liked three of those very much and hated the other one ( Gentlemen of the Road). I think The Yiddish Policemen's Union is my favorite of his novels. My sister-in-law gave me her copy of Moonglow last year, so I read it. What did you like

Barber II. Two time Durham university graduate
Durham Tech's Building, Engineering, and Skilled Trades classes offer a variety of hands-on, skill-building courses that include carpentry, plumbing, HVAC, and more. These classes can result in rewarding and lucrative careers.

Students can get a jump start on a career and education in Construction & Trades using library resources

If you haven't heard of Disability Pride Month before you can read about the origin and meaning in this article.
