Are you looking to learn more about entrepreneurship? Look no further than The Start-Up Shelf—FSU Libraries’ new book display of key titles on entrepreneurship.
This display, which is located on the bottom level of Strozier by the main elevators, brings together some of the hottest entrepreneurship titles for your reading pleasure. From autobiographies of successful business owners like No Filter: The Inside Story of Instagram, to eternal classics like How to Win Friends and Influence People, you will find plenty to read.
At the bottom of this blog post, you can find a list of all the books that are included in The Start-Up Shelf. Some of them are ebooks, which means you can read them right now just by clicking the link below.
We are also incorporating ways for students to engage with the display. First, we had a board up where students could share what new business they wanted to see in Tallahassee.
We got all kinds of great responses! Students are hoping to see an Ikea, a dog cafe, a language exchange, and more come to Tallahassee.
We have just added a new engagement board, which provides a place for students with small businesses to plug their business’s website and social media. Come share your small business, then pick up a book to help you develop your business strategy!
