Sims Library invites faculty to library orientation August 16, 2006.
Sims Memorial Library invites faculty to attend "Decoding Sims: Find Your Grail @ the Library.” on Wednesday, Aug. 16.
At the orientation, faculty will meet their library liaisons; learn about remote access for library resources; and discover subject-specific electronic databases, instruction and distance learning services, reserves and electronic reserves, interlibrary loan, phone, e-mail, chat, text-messaging and appointment-based reference services.
Customize your day by choosing to attend morning or afternoon sessions. A free lunch will be provided for those who attend.
The morning session begins at 9:15 a.m. with coffee and registration. Departmental library liaisons will be introduced. At 9:45 a.m. presentations on library services and resources will be offered. Those who attend the morning session are invited to stay for lunch.
The afternoon registration and liaison introduction begins with lunch at 11:45 p.m., and the library services and resources presentation begins at 12:45 p.m. Library tours and specific resource demonstrations will be available at each session following the planned program.
Plan your day as your schedule allows, but don't miss this opportunity to see what's new at Sims Library!
Pre-registration is requested. To register, e-mail your name, department and the session you plan to attend to jdurel@selu.edu by August 14, or call Julie at x3962.
Individual faculty and departments unable to attend are encouraged to schedule alternate times or additional Library sessions to fit their particular needs. Contact your library faculty liaison -- http://www.selu.edu/library/directory/liaisons/index.html -- to make arrangements.
This program is offered by Sims Memorial Library as part of the New Faculty Workshop Series, co-sponsored through the Center for Faculty Excellence.
