Assignment 7

Hi folks,

I'm back from a cold and windy Seattle, but before I get to the slide show I wanted to direct your attention to Assignment 7, question 5A: for those of you that printed the assignment, please skip this question.

The catalog is not displaying the "Current periodicals" record for you to answer correctly, so I deleted it from assignment 7 and changed it so now you only have to answer a new 5A and 5B.

If you haven't gotten up to assignment 7, then don't worry about it.

Questions? Let me know!

I'm away until Tuesday

I will be in Seattle from Friday, January 19 thru Tuesday, January 23 but will periodically check my e-mail and IM (Yahoo ID: freerangelibrarian) accounts if you need help.

You can also ask anyone at the Reference Desk for help (get used to asking librarians, it's what we're good at...the answering, not the questioning :-).

Or go to the Library Skills web page
for course information or the "Getting Started" page for a refresher.

Welcome to UNIV 106 for Spring 2007

Library Skills (UNIV 106) is an introductory course to the many wonders of libraries. I hope to see you and/or meet you when classes start January 16. If you are taking this course I would like to point a couple of things to you:

  • > The course is available on the web at http://library.boisestate.edu/skills/
  • > You need to come to the Reference Desk to "check in" so we can introduce you to the course.
  • > Get started by reading the "Getting Started" page.
  • > If you use Facebook you can check my profile: http://www.facebook.com/p/Memo_Cordova/52304655
  • > The course is one credit, go-at-your-own-pace kinda class. We have no meetings or classroom. You use the library to complete the course.
  • > If at any time you have issues/problems, please see me. I'm in the first floor of the library, room 107D.
  • > Last, enjoy the class. It'll make you a smarter researcher.
Cheers,
Memo
