The new Forest Ecosystems and Society (FES) department Kids Book and Toy Library is officially up and running! This resource is located in the FES Mail and Copy Room (321F Richardson Hall) and is available to anyone in the department who may need to bring their children to work for a few hours, offering books and toys to keep them entertained while employees work.

This initiative is an important step in fostering a family-friendly and supportive work environment, helping to maintain a healthy life balance. Kids sometimes need to come to the office, and this library is a small way of recognizing and supporting that reality.

A big thank you to Dana Warren and Josephine for setting up and organizing this space. The library will be maintained by those who use it. To donate items or help maintain the collection, reach out to Dana Warren.
