Dr. Rob Stephens<\/a>, research and instruction librarian and outreach coordinator. \u201cWe’re a place that offers new experiences to students, and this public performance is one example of that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe event includes three performances including a bass clarinet trio, a string quartet and a chamber choir. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI think it’s an incredible opportunity to experience new music,\u201d Dr. Stephens said. \u201cI, for one, have never seen a performance by a bass clarinet trio, so I imagine that will be a new experience for many students.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While a library is often thought of as a quiet place, the third floor is the library\u2019s only quiet floor. The first floor provides a space for students to chat while in The Brew coffee shop or at a table near the displays. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI hope that this performance helps change the perception that the library has to be quiet,\u201d Stephens said. \u201cI think music in unexpected places can bring joy, so I really hope that some student who came to the library for another reason is delighted by the music being here.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
