Join Tisch Special Collections and the Tufts University Chaplaincy for a presentation of medieval music for the season of Advent during services on Sunday, December 8th in Goddard Chapel!
Our Manuscript 27 is a late 14th century Italian antiphonal, a choir book designed for the singing of monastic prayers - in this case, chants for the first Sunday of Advent through Epiphany.
At the 5:00 PM Catholic Mass and the 7:00 PM Protestant Worship, members of the Tufts community will sing selections from this manuscript.
On Friday, December 6, access to Tisch Library level 2 will be limited from 7:00pm to 2:00am due to the TUSC Tisch Takeover laser tag event.
Levels G, 1, and 3 will remain open if you are looking for spaces to study or work in a group.
Play laser tag in Tisch and enjoy Shake Shack, t-shirts, inflatable games and more thanks to TUSC!
Join us for snacks and a relaxing, playful exploration of Adobe Illustrator. Illustrator is a vector-based 2D design program used for graphic design, typesetting, and (unsurprisingly) illustration, but it’s not a typical “drawing” program like you might be familiar with if you’ve used Photoshop or ProCreate. This event will help you understand how to start developing a visual language by experimenting with shape, color, and scale with a focus on exploration and process more than product. There is no previous experience with Illustrator required.
Come hang out in the DDS and explore objects close-up with our 200x macro smartphone lens and unconventional microphones. Low stake prompts and reflections will help encourage curiosity for seeing and listening in different ways. Light snacks will be available. Feel free to bring your objects to listen or look at!
The library takes seriously its responsibility of managing research materials for the Tufts community. As such, difficult decisions have to be made from time to time. One such decision is to cancel our subscription to the AM Explorer primary source databases effective January 1, 2025.
Due to a challenging budget climate and in order to appropriately steward our resources and free up funds for potential future acquisitions, Tisch Library is discontinuing our subscription to some electronic resources. Before proceeding, we looked closely at usage and cost. In many cases, the resource provided duplicate coverage of titles that still can be accessed via JumboSearch in other collections.
The following resources will not be renewed for January 1:
Tisch will be open 7:45am - 4:00am December 1 through December 19.
