Library Survivor Workshops (Fall 2008)
You've got a cell phone. You've got a computer. You think you're
wired and ready to start the school year. But unless you're connected
to McConnell Library, you may not know what you're missing.
To learn how to use the library's resources effectively, plan to
attend a Library Survivor class. These drop-in sessions will help
you be a better library user. Many professors offer extra credit
for attendance, too!
Classes are held in Library Classroom B, and are restricted to
20 students. There is no registration for these workshops. Seating
is first come first serve. Doors will open ten minutes before the
class starts.
