Career LIVEbrary - January 25


Career LIVEbrary works exactly like a normal library – readers’ checkout and borrow a “book” for a limited period.  The only difference is that books in the LIVEbrary are people representing a particular career path or topic.  Books share wisdom and experience, and reply to questions. 

Wednesday, January 25, 2012
9:30am-3:30pm
TFDL, Gallery Hall (Ground Floor)
RSVP: go to JobLink and search CareerLIVEbrary in Job Postings

Where are the books?

A quick reminder that books on 3LB are being moved to either the HDL (High Density Library, a storage facility) or the TFDL. Until the TFDL opens, both HDL and TFDL books need to be requested via the catalogue. Here are a couple of examples:
