Not a creature was stirring, not even a … but wait … there was a grad student in working on their research, a couple working on some graphics near the Digital Media Center, and someone, presumably after checking their list twice, was actually checking out some books.
Hopefully you got what was on your list too!
Glad we could be there for you.
