"Kawaii Bento Boxes"

This book on bento boxes will blow your mind. A bento box is a combination of rice, vegetables, and meat in a box-link container. The artistic presentation in these boxes is incredible.

New!

Hey everyone!
We have a ton of new books for all majors that came in at the beginning of this Fall Quarter.

Got a few new DVD's too and I recommend checking out these two!






These two are just an addition to our ever growing Animation selection of DVD's.

Both are considered to be animation masterpieces from director Hayao Miyasaki. We have more of his films including, Spirited Away, The Castle of Cagliostro, Princess Mononoke, and Ponyo. If you are an animation fan, I HIGHLY recommend coming into the Library and checking out one of these great films. Maybe even get together with some friends and having a Miyasaki movie marathon!


My DVD suggestion for this week:
-All of Miyasaki's films!!!
-Pan's Labyrinth
-Amores Perros
-Star Trek (2009)
-Anthony Bordain No Reservations (TV Series)
