    <strong>Win use of a VIP Study Room in the Library </strong><span>Want to spend less time this semester during finals searching for a quiet place to study in the busy Library? Enter the Library's contest through Monday, December 4, and you could win your very own VIP Study Room to use from December 7-20! No more squeezing onto the end of a table, or worse - the floor. You'll have a room to call your own with it's own door, desk, and maybe some additional treats.</span><span> </span>
    </div>
    <br><span>To enter, check out the poster by the elevators on the 1st floor of the Library. Follow one of the clues and locate a contest flyer - then just share a photo of the flyer and tag @umbclibrary and #vipstudyspace. We'll notify the winners on December 6. </span><div><br></div>
