April 2012
Greeting:
Even as the semester is winding down, the library continues to introduce new services, like our Book a Librarian consultation service and our new mobile app. Read on for more info!
And as you start thinking ahead to summer and fall courses, I'm available to help you with any library needs, including class instruction sessions, customized research guides for courses, and requests for new materials for the library collection. Please feel welcome to send me questions or suggestions any time.
Best wishes for the summer ahead,
Kathy
