\"UnitedThis year’s Science Literacy Week<\/a> really does have it all, starting with two amazing library exhibits:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Science of Star Trek at Schulich Library<\/li>\n
  2. Knowing Blood, Medical Observations, Fluid Meanings<\/a> at Osler Library of the History of Medicine.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you can’t make it up to Osler Library, we have a touch table coming to Schulich Library tomorrow\u00a0that will allow you\u00a0to explore the Knowing Blood exhibit from Tuesday to Friday.<\/p>\n

    The fun with technology does not stop there, however, because we have 3D printing and learn to code workshops. You can also explore virtual reality technologies with the Oculus Rift. I will definitely be there for that.<\/p>\n

    I haven’t forgotten about the bees…we have hives on the roof of Schulich Library and they make the best honey. Take a visit\u00a0up there with an experienced beekeeper.<\/p>\n

    There is more happening than I can mention here but I don’t want to leave out Wednesday’s\u00a0Wikipedia edit-a-thon on women in science, or the talk from Dr. Joe Schwarcz on the facts and myths of eating right on Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n

    I will leave you with the calendar of events<\/a> to explore. Now if only we had transporter rooms… Well, there is always next year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
