The Scarborough Library honored the 2017 and 2018 Shepherd Outstanding Teachers, Dr. Jeff Groff and Dr. Jonathan Gilkerson, on September 14 with the unveiling of two READ posters. Groff, associate professor of physics and chair of the Institute of Environmental and Physical Sciences, is featured on the poster with the book A Sand County Almanac by Aldo Leopold. Gilkerson, assistant professor of biology, selected Silent Spring by Rachel Carson as his favorite book.
The library’s READ poster project is based on a series begun by the American Library Association that featured celebrities and their favorite books to encourage reading.
