Edible Book Contest & Your Break

Want to keep your mind from getting all mushy over Spring Break?  Keep your creative juices flowing by coming up with an entry for the Edible Book Contest.  The contest has occurred at IU and other universities for several years now.  In the past, only staff members of the IU Libraries could enter, but this year the contest is also open to student employees.  This will make the contest even better, because you have great ideas, right?  Your entry can be a visual pun (like the BUSP 2009 honorable mention Frankenstein pictured below), or it can be in the shape of the book itself.  Need some inspiration?  You can check out photos from past contests here.  The categories of competition include punniest, most appetizing, best use of non-food items, best group submission, best book structure, most creative, best student submission, and best overall.  To enter, e-mail your name or group name, the title of your edible book, and a brief description of your display to jranz@indiana.edu.  Registration ends March 22. Winners will receive a prize, a blue ribbon, and bragging rights.   Whether your submit an entry or not, you are invited to view all the displays and vote for your favorites from 11:00-2:00 on April 1 in the lobby of the Wells Library.  

Whether you give time to coming up with a entry for the contest or not, have a great time on your break!  Enjoy yourself.  You deserve it.
