Dear BIS Students,
This list of library events message just arrived in my inbox, but one particular option needs your immediate attention:
A Refresher for Returning Adult Learners
Has it been a while since you were in school? This workshop gives returning adult learners an update on searching and working with online catalogs, electronic databases, online journals, and e-books.
Thur. 9/5 @ 3:30pm
This sounds like the perfect refresher for a BIS student, but it is taking place tomorrow afternoon! I apologize for the late notice, but I do hope those of you in need of this refresher will be able to make it over to Johnson Center for this workshop.
I will let you know if I receive notice of another workshop like this in the coming months.
Best wishes,
Lenore
