About

Ever wonder how holidays like Halloween and Valentine's Day become so popular while others like Arbor Day are decidedly less celebrated in the media? Join UAB Libraries as we discover how polar bears became symbols of one winter holiday season, chocolates and diamonds are the ultimate gift of romantic love, and greeting cards became a mother's best friend.

Presented by Brooke Becker, media literacy librarian in UAB Libraries
