Schedule an Appointment

I'm generally on campus weekdays 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and at other times by appointment. I especially try to be available for 'drop-in' help during breaks and lunch hours on class days; look for me at the little desk in the main area of the library. Drop by; or call or email to schedule an appointment at a time that's convenient for you. I also do a lot of consultation by email, phone, and Skype, if that's what works better for you!

Listservs

Listservs are forums for communities centered around topics, disciplines, or professions, where the group communicates through email. When you are subscribed to a listerv, you can post messages to a group of people by sending one email to the list. In turn you will also receive emails that are posted to the list by other members. Listservs are one way to enter into professional conversations with colleagues. They're also a good job-hunting tool, as open positions in a particular field are often posted to listservs.
