Summer is all about tanning in the sweltering sun, while sipping on your margarita with some Ray Bans on. Sounds picture perfect, doesn\u2019t it? But do you know what\u2019s missing? A short, cool, no-strings-attached romance for the break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the Humanities and Social Studies Library (HSSL) we\u2019re taking the Blind Date with A Book concept a step further. This summer is the season of online dating, and no one wishes to go through the utter surprise (we\u2019ve had enough of those the past few years, thanks) of an unknown pick, we want eyes meeting across the club but better, blind dating but safer, happily ever after but shorter, and so we present to you our new Redpath Book Display; Summer Fling with a Book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
