Happy birthday to Dr. Lydia Otero at UA Special Collections! It’s also Arizona’s 113th bday, and no better way to celebrate our beloved home than to remember our history.

Psyched for Terrance Hayes at @uapoetrycenter.bsky.social tonight. Benefits of working in a library include being able to walk into the stacks and pregame
