Trivia at Winchell's

Hey everyone,

Just a brief reminder that this Thursday, October 14th, LISSO will be hosting a Trivia Night at Winchell's! Take a break from your coursework for a fun night of trivia with your colleagues and help us reign supreme (again!). All SLIS students, staff, and faculty welcome!

Winchell's is located at 348 Southland Drive and offers a full menu along with adult and non-adult beverages. Trivia starts at 8; but we suggest arriving early if you want to eat before the games begin!

*For this event, LISSO asks that you would please RSVP if you plan on coming out so that we can try to reserve room for everyone!*

See you there!

LISSO Fall Picnic (and Book Drive!)

Hey everyone,

First of all, we would like to thank everyone who came out to last week's Trivia Night at Winchell's and helped us claim victory!! Yes, the LISSO team, "Those Darn Librarians," won first prize!! Good times were had by all.

Our next event is a Fall Picnic and Book Drive. It will be held this coming Saturday, September 18 at Woodland Park beginning around noon..








Got extra books stacking up? Need a break from school? Do you like food and games? Wanna help a good cause?

Come to Woodland Park on Saturday, September 18th around 12:00 and join LISSO in their Fall Picnic and first ever Book Drive for the International Book Project, a non-profit organization founded and located in Lexington, KY!

· All SLIS students, staff, and faculty - including friends, family, and significant others are welco...me to attend!

· LISSO will be providing some food, like hamburgers, hotdogs, and vegetarian options, but feel free to bring your favorite side dish, dessert, drinks, or game!

·Pay your $5 LISSO dues by the 18th and be entered into a drawing for a gift card from the UK Bookstore; we will draw a name at the picnic!

Please bring books to donate for the International Book Project! Don’t have any books?

Hope to see you next Saturday! Bring your appetite!

Trivia Night

LISSO will be attending Trivia Night at Winchell's (348 Southland Drive) this Thursday, September 9. Trivia starts at 8p and usually goes until around 10. Trivia is always a lot of fun and we usually do pretty well. Winchell's as a restaurant and bar has a full menu and plenty of drinks (alcoholic and non).

*For this event; however, LISSO asks that you would please RSVP if you plan on coming out so can try to reserve room for everyone! For most of our events, we generally are able to make space for all who show up -- but since Winchell's Trivia is a very popular event and Winchell's is not a large place -- we would like make sure that we reserve enough space for everyone who comes out. You can RSVP by leaving a comment on this blog entry, on the Facebook event, by e-mailing the LISSO account (lissouk@gmail.com), or by letting any of the officers know you are planning to attend.

Hope to see you on Thursday as we show Winchells (and Lexington) how trivia is done! All SLIS students, staff, and faculty welcome!
