A new grab-and-go café is set to open inside the renovated Milne Library, and it needs a name! 

Campus Auxiliary Services would love name suggestions from SUNY Geneseo students, faculty, and staff for the new Milne Library grab-and-go café location.

Submit your suggestion by April 30! 🥙🍕🥪☕🥯

Michele is doing double Library dog duty this week!

In addition to her visit on GREAT Day, Michele is here at her regularly scheduled day, Thursday April 25, from 1 to 2:30pm. 

If you’d like a wider overview of what happened on previous GREAT Days, check out our collection of GREAT Day programs! Programs from the very first GREAT Day in 2007 through 2023 are available to view and download. When you finish browsing the posters and programs, don’t forget to check out the newest Proceedings of GREAT Day!

“Proceedings of GREAT Day compiles and publishes promising student work presented at SUNY Geneseo’s GREAT Day symposium. The projects, presentations, and research included here represent the academic rigor, multidisciplinary study, and creativity of the students taking part in the SUNY Geneseo GREAT Day symposium.”

Issues are available from 2009 to the present in the Proceedings of Great Day Collection in KnightScholar!

Can’t get enough of the GREAT Day excitement? The Library archives posters, programs, and copies of The Proceedings of GREAT Day for you to browse and enjoy any day of the year! The GREAT Day collections are available in KnightScholar, SUNY Geneseo’s institutional repository.

Looking to browse this year’s GREAT Day posters or reminisce on poster sessions from previous years? The Library preserves a selection of past GREAT Day student posters in KnightScholar! Select posters from 2020 through 2023 are available to browse and download.
