By Sydney Shansey, Library Assistant

To celebrate National Poetry Month this April, Hassenfeld librarians are using K-12 voices to showcase a wide range of poetry. Just outside the library doors, you will find a bulletin board covered in poems submitted by K-12 students, faculty, and staff. These poems are written onto paper leaves that come together to create our “poet-tree.” The leaves altogether showcase multiple languages, styles, and writers (some are even originals from our USN community). Stop by to appreciate everyone’s writing and celebrate the art of poetry!
