Twilight at the Library
CHENEY, Wash. - As the sun goes down on a beautiful fall night on the Eastern Washington University campus, revellers will be in full costume for this year's Oktoberfest, Twilight Masquerade, EWU Libraries' annual fundraiser dinner and auction. There is no masking the truth, everyone is guaranteed a great time! This year's event will be held from 5-10:30 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 27, inside the JFK Library.
Enjoy a wonderful meal from Just a Couple of Moms with beer and wine tasting, courtesy of No-Li Brewhouse, Golden Hills Brewery, Latah Creek Winery and Gift Shop, and Walla Walla Vintners. Non-alcoholic beverages will also be served.
The Chris Grant Quartet will provide live music and the EWU Libraries' Star Search student talent contest winner will provide entertainment for the evening. Thank you to WestCoast Entertainment and TicketsWest for providing the $500 cash prize!
A fun addition this year is a photo booth (run by Entertainment Warehouse) where Oktoberfest attendees can take whimsical photos (props included) and receive them in an instant. Thank you to Drs. Roccanova and Ridl, Inland Center for Contemporary Dentistry in Cheney, Wash., for sponsoring this booth. Also, the popular wine toss will be front and center as part of the evening's festivities.
Another new feature is advance registration, so you don't have to wait in lines at checkout (http://www.ewu.edu/oktoberfest/information-.xml). Deadline for advanced registration is Oct. 24, 2012.
Auctioneer Austin Booker will lead the live auction. Bid on gift baskets, original artwork, certificates to local restaurants and businesses, jewelry and more during the silent auction. Play the "Heads or Tails" game to win cash, or take a chance on the raffle to win a quilt pieced by Elizabeth Malia and quilted by Michelle Lowe of StitchesRN.com. http://www.ewu.edu/oktoberfest/quilt-raffle.xml. Quilt raffle tickets ($1) are available now through several campus locations including the JFK Library Circulation Desk.
The live auction is scary good this year with a 55-inch big screen TV from Huppin's, a trip to Hawaii, a fabulous Dell laptop, a nice Leavenworth getaway, a six drawer Craftsman tool chest donated by Cheney Sears, a bike from Bicycle Time & Music Too, a John Hardy bracelet from the Jewelry Design Center, amazing art, tickets to sporting events and fun venues like Mobius Science Center or the Best of Broadway Spokane, a bag of Hilti Power Tools, and too much more to list. Be prepared for an abundant silent auction as well. There is something for everyone!
Tickets are $35 each or $175 for a reserved table of six, and student tickets are $15. All proceeds benefit the EWU Libraries' Collection Endowment Fund for the purchase of library materials including books, journals, and electronic resources. Tickets are available online now at www.ewu.edu/oktoberfest.
We are also on Facebook at facebook.com/EWULibrariesOktoberfest. It's Halloween weekend, so dress up in a beautiful costume and wear a mask if you like - and come join the excitement and fun!

Students Earn Library Awards
CHENEY, Wash. - Eastern Washington University students Anthony Austin-Walker (on left in picture), a history and humanities major from Issaquah, Wash., and Aaron Stroud, a biology major from Burlington, Wash., have been honored as this year's EWU Library Award recipients.
During a ceremony on Feb. 28, they were each presented a check by Dean of Libraries Richard Wilson, for $250 as well as travel expenses to attend the 2012 National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR) Conference March 29-31 in Ogden, Utah.
The NCUR Library Award recognizes and encourages student research and creative projects that incorporate library resources. The awards were made possible by the generous donation of Ray and June Johnson of Seattle. The Johnsons "believe in enabling the dreams and goals of our future leaders" and the library will receive a matching grant from Boeing as part of the Johnson's philanthropy. The couple congratulates the recipients and encourages continued excellence in their achievements to date.
At the NCUR conference, Austin-Walker will present his paper "Slave Life Cycles: Comparing Slavery in Ancient Greece and Rome." His mentor on this project, Georgia Bonny Bazemore, PhD, is an assistant professor in the Department of History. Austin-Walker cited more than 30 works from the 1950s to the present as part of his historiography of slavery in ancient times. "I learned from this research project that there are endless amounts of sources existent that address nearly every subject in some manner," said Austin-Walker, a junior who hopes to enter graduate school to pursue a doctorate in ancient Near Eastern studies.
Aaron Stroud was mentored by EWU biology professor Allan Scholz, PhD, and relied heavily on library resources to research his paper, "The Use of Diagnostic Bones to Identify Bull Trout in Piscivore Stomachs." Stroud predicts, "Over the next few months, I see my relationship with JFK Library blossoming, as my research skills sharpen and my scientific education deepens." He hopes to start grad school next fall and finish his Master of Science in biology with an emphasis in fisheries management.
Only EWU students selected to present at the NCUR conference are eligible to apply for the Library Award. The award recipients were selected by a panel of librarians who assessed overall merit of the applications based on incorporation of library resources into the research or creative project. This year's panel included Library Instruction Coordinator Ielleen Miller and Outreach Librarian Rayette Sterling.
