This weekend, April 12-14, the UW will welcome students,
alumni, family members, and friends to help celebrate Parent and Family
Weekend. As an integral part of student academics and campus life, the
Libraries will be well-represented by a number of tours and open houses,
including a special behind-the-scenes look at the Conservation Center and
guided tours of Suzzallo/Allen Libraries. Please be aware that we can expect an
increased number of visitors on Friday through Sunday this weekend, both on
formal tours and informal wanderings, so extend a warm Libraries' welcome to
them and anticipate questions about your spaces and programs. A full list of
