…our new Courtesy Clerk! Adam Mizelle is now here to help at Hagerty Library.

As you see him walking around, feel free to ask for his help. He can help find books, work the copiers, and more. He will also be enforcing library policies (food and drink, noise, etc.).

We are excited to welcome Adam to the Hagerty family.

Come learn Engineering Information Skills with our very own Jay Bhatt. Jay is the Engineering Librarian at Hagerty and will be speaking on Wednesday,  October 8, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in 2020 MacAlister Hall at 33rd and Chestnut Streets.

This is a highly interactive workshop in which students will develop various engineering information-seeking skills using Web 2.0 applications such as blogs, RSS feeds, tagging, and Facebook. Students will explore a Web-based citation management software, Refworks, to create a collaborative bibliography for research papers or engineering design projects. Attendees should bring a laptop. Students who don’t have one may call Instructional Media Services at 215-895-2925 to reserve a laptop.
