The Library at the Lee Campus has two excellent events going on this week. Each of the following events are free and open for anyone to attend.
The Hendry/Glades Center Library would like to congratulate the winners of the Banned Books Week Trivia Challenge!
Anliu Gomez, Alejandra Cruz and Maria Garcia will each receive an ALA tote bag filled with Banned Books. A big thanks to all who celebrated our freedom to read during Banned Books Week by participating in the Trivia Challenge and the screening of The Great Gatsby. We hope to see you at next year’s events! Welcome back returning students, and hello to all the new students starting this fall!
Remember that we have computers, study rooms, and a long list of resources to help you do well in your classes, not to mention friendly staff and librarians who are here to help with your research and general library needs. Good luck with classes! Thanks to the tireless work of your very own Edison State College librarians, we now have some brand new Research Tutorials to help you get your assignments done!
Get started here: http://researchguides.edison.edu/researchtutorialguide Looking for a specific journal article or journal title? Watch this quick tutorial to learn how you can quickly navigate the extensive databases available to Edison students.
All Edison State College Libraries now have Kindle Fires available for student use. All currently enrolled students (as well as Faculty and Staff) are welcome to check out a Kindle Fire for up to three weeks.
The more these kinds of resources are used, the more incentive there will be to expand services like this. If you're interested, ask at the Circulation Desk of your nearest Edison State College library.
