Take a break and pet a puppy.

Hannah Warren has been unable to breathe, eat, drink or swallow on her own since she was born in South Korea in 2010.

Eric Ames is a curator for the Baylor Library Digital Collections and works in the Riley Digitization Center at the garden-level of Moody Memorial Library. Ames and the Digitization Projects Group are responsible for online digital copies of the hundreds of thousands of historical documents in Baylor’s special collections. This semester, Ames has taught a new graduate level course called Technology and Outreach for Museums and Libraries that involved 15 graduate students learning how to build, digitize and advertise their own exhibits.

Paper or plastic? That is the choice facing to-go diners at Baylor’s residential dining halls.

Baylor Dining Services officials hope to create more interest in the program next year, he said.
