What do a Nancy Pearl Librarian Action Figure, brain cells and bookworms have in common? Find out at Arlington Campus Library’s latest display. Here, you can discover why real-life librarian Nancy Pearl’s national reading campaign turned her into hot-selling kitsch and how reading benefits the human brain. View the exhibit at ACL or here.
