E. H. Butler Library's Book Spine Poetry Contest is coming to a close. Please make sure to submit all entries by Monday, April 21. 

How it works:

1. Use any book available to you and line up the words on the spine to create your poem. Use any element of the spine you like (title, author, color, etc.). The format, length, and theme are entirely up to you (bonus points for poems about books or libraries).
2. Take a picture of your poem.
3. E-mail your poem to Katie Bertel, outreach and engagement librarian, or tag your poem with #butlerbookspine on Facebook or Twitter. To be eligible for a prize, you must include your name and title of the poem.
4. Submit as many poems as you like by Monday, April 21.
5. Submissions will be posted anonymously to E. H. Butler Library’s Pinterest page.
6. Three winners will be announced at the end of the month. Winners will receive a prize from Argo Tea and will be featured on the E. H. Butler Library blog.

The contest is open to all Buffalo State students, faculty, and staff.
