While supplies last: Free eclipse viewers at LCC Library!
|
|
|
|
|
| |
On the morning of Sat., Oct. 14, an annular eclipse will be visible from Eugene and the surrounding area. Unlike during a total eclipse, the sun will not be completely blocked out by the moon, and there will never be a safe time to view this eclipse without eye protection. Make sure you're prepared to see this rare celestial event by picking up a free eclipse viewer at the LCC Library's Reference desk!
They're is a limit of two eclipse viewers per person. The Reference desk is located inside the Library on the second floor of the Center Building on LCC's main campus. Open M-Thu., 10 am-4 pm, and on Friday, 10 am-2 pm.
