ISU Library Newsletter Contest

I submitted "Oobler Oogler", but it didn't win. But this is pretty cute anyway.

The Oboler Library recently held a contest to name their new in-house newsletter, which is posted on the doors of the library’s restrooms. Competition was fierce, with over 75 entries! Many of them were definitely worthy to be the bulletin’s new title. Library Reference staff donated funds to purchase the award, a $25 gift certificate for University Bookstore.

Oboler Library’s Reference staff had a great time selecting the winner, though choosing just one was difficult. There was surprisingly little duplication, which shows just how clever and creative our library patrons are! Here are some of the runners-up, or “dishonorable mentions,” as one staff member quipped:

· The Straight Flush
· Bengal News Flush
· Flushing Times
· The Flush Factor
· Library Leak
· News from the Throne
· Morning Constitution
· LavaStories
· Tissue Issues
· The Toilet Paper
· View from the Loo
