Fall 2021: Library services (Part I)

 

Are these late summer or early fall sugar peas?

I’m torn.

I planted this crop after the storm that plowed through our little corner of Eastern Ontario in mid July. Hail the size of large pieces of rock salt shredded Hosta leaves, corn stocks, and my peas as well as beans that were just ready for picking.

Fortunately, some of that first crop of vegetables was harvestable (and tasted good!).

As an experiment, I decided to plant more sugar peas and cosmos (love their cheerfully waving blooms) the week after the storm.

Low and behold! The seeds took, the plants grew, and we are about to enjoy our second crop.

The resilience of Mother Earth.

And just in time for seasonal change—in my garden and on campus. Although “on campus” is a relative term.

I am not “on campus” in this fall of 2021. I am still teaching essentially online and look forward to supporting faculty and undergraduate as well as graduate students via Brightspace.

I’m also available for individual research consultations and here are some resources that are always available:

• Information about accessing physical items from the library as well as accessing online resources by using your MyCarletonOne username and password.
• Research subject guides to quickly access key resources in your discipline.
