The mini-conference will also provide a forum in which attendees can suggest future Library services to support distance education. The collection is a miniature social history in images of the relation of women to the printed word. The Toolbox is a guide to search engines, subject directories, online reference tools, and much more. The tours leave from the entrance lobby and last about 45 minutes. Students, faculty, staff, and community members are invited to attend.
Tours are also available at other times by appointment.
The University's two science libraries offer tours by appointment. Library staff members will offer informal demonstrations of new electronic databases, distance learning services, and improved information delivery programs. The library's reference, instruction, and collection development services will also be described. The reception is particularly intended to welcome new faculty, and to introduce faculty members to the subject liaison librarians in their fields. Both sessions will be held in the Calipari Room, Main Floor, W.E.B. Du Bois Library.
