From The Encounter Student Newspaper (University of St. Francis) in CARLI Digital Collections.
Thirty years ago, the University of St. Francis students wrote about some Valentine's Day traditions around the world. The one I found the most interesting was this one: "In some areas in Italy, people hold a Valentine's Day feast on February 14. In Sicily, some young unmarried women get up before sunrise on Valentine's Day. They stand by their, windows, sometimes for hours, watching for a man to pass the house. Each girl believes that the first man she sees, or someone who looks like him, will become her bridegroom within the year." Can you imagine that?

We do not plan to rename I-Share, but for clarity while we are still running Voyager and planning for its replacement, we will be using the phrase “I-Share Next” to refer to our future system.
