You’re invited to the 50 & Forward Celebration Kickoff on February 5th!

Join the 50th Anniversary launch party to recognize one of ODU’s most iconic buildings - Perry Library. Notably, the 50 & Forward Celebration Kickoff welcomes shared memories and provides the opportunity to learn, grow, and create. Please visit Perry Library on Thursday, February 5, to explore books, movies, and technology spanning over five decades. Also, record a “Happy 50th Anniversary” message, pick up free pizza, and grab some 50 & Forward anniversary swag!

We invite the Monarch community to engage with us in creating a library for the next 50 years.
