- Kindness Week Lyons Staff Maud colouring page
For Kindness Week 2022, a request was made asking if a new Maud colouring page could be created specifically for Lyons New Media Centre's social media accounts. The page includes the Lyons Staff version of Maud, standing within nature, surrounded by several butterflies, flowers, trees and even an owl on a branch. The message of "Be kind," is one the Library has used throughout the pandemic and is echoed in this page.

About Maud the Library Mascot
Maud the Library Mascot made her debut in Fall 2020 on the Library's social media accounts on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. Advertising various Library events, services and announcements, Maud has quickly become "the face of the Library".
Based on the #FlatMac design of Maud the Marauder released previously by McMaster University, the Library's version of Maud has very quickly taken on a personality of her own, being seen with various props, in various locations, and sometimes even wearing a variety of different clothing (although the "I <3 Mac Library!" and "Library Staff" t-shirts are the most commonly seen versions).
More recently, Maud has teamed up with the University of Waterloo Library's mascot, Scholar, on Instagram as one half of the Birds of Encouragement campaign.
