Students, we're sad we won't see you in-person this semester, but we'll still check out print books or audiobooks to you! Just email your request, and one of us will put it at the Security Desk for you to pick up. (As always, we'll help you get eBooks and eAudio too.)

Meet the “Smellicopter.” Researchers slapped a living moth antenna on a drone to give it a sense of smell. The system monitors the electrical signals sent from the antenna, allowing the drone to lock onto the source of a scent and navigate toward it: wired.trib.al/7ZcRLhd
If you find this gory thread interesting, we have a book with details of the case of Phineas Gage. We'd love to check it out to a patron - just contact library staff!
