Just for Fun: ‘Legends of the Library Ninjas’ Graphic Novel

Are you looking for a friendly and fun way to introduce the library to potential new users? If so, consider taking a look at theNinja graphic novel Legends of the Library Ninjas created by students, staff, and librarians at Kansas State University Salina and Kansas Wesleyan University. The graphic novel tells the story of two students as they wander into their college library to do research for a paper (assigned their first day of class!). The students have no clue where to start…. until the Library Ninjas enter the scene!! Be sure to check out Legends of the Library Ninjas and read Library Journal’s review of the graphic novel, too!
