CURA in the Library Book Club is a newly created weekly experience (5 to 8 sessions) conceived as a space for students to be contemplative in action, that is, to reflect on their day-to-day life in conversation with a set of chosen books and with each other. The idea is to invite students to pause to consider the world around them and their place within it.
The experience is guided by the Saint Louis University Madrid Library staff, and moderated by the student participants themselves. Space is limited to 10 participants.
If you would like to be included in the Cura in the Library experience offered in Fall, please write an e-mail to library-madrid@slu.edu by July 1, with the subject line 'Cura in the Library'.
