Library Donations Moratorium

The University of Lethbridge Library is not able to accept donations of books, journals or magazines for the main library collection at this time.  Several factors have led to this decision: the COVID-19 restrictions that have resulted in restricted access to campus, ongoing budget constraints and staff shortages. 

We will continue to consider significant gifts for Special Collections and Archives. Please contact Wendy Merkley, Associate University Librarian (wendy.merkley@uleth.ca) if you wish to discuss a donation of rare or archival materials.

I remember picking a color directly from a photograph on my page and then copy/pasting that hex value into my css and changing the text color for my *entire* website. […]

How Apple reinvented the cursor for iPad

Even though Apple did not invent the mouse pointer, history has cemented its place in dragging it out of obscurity and into mainstream use.

UI cheat sheet: radio buttons, checkboxes, and other selectors
