The Essentials

Hey, students: Can you tell good information from bad?

October is Information Literacy Awareness Month, and the library is running a contest for people to show off their sleuthing skills for a chance to win a $25 iTunes gift card.

The library is asking students to help lay to rest the ghost of Edward Rulloff, for whom Cornell’s Collegetown restaurant is named, by finding credible historical evidence to prove or disprove the 19th-century crimes of which he was accused.

The contest runs through Nov. 7.
