The Library was excited to once again host a Literature Fair, featuring students from Dr. Kisha Tracy's ENGL 3030 The Global Middle Ages.

Students presented their posters focusing on their research as "medievalists for a semester", detailing their exploration of a piece of literature from the global medieval period (between 500-1500).
