LibraryLinks Fall 2005
Scholarly Resources Fair Includes iPod Giveaway
By Susan Currie & Bern Mulligan
Following the success of last year’s sessions, the University Libraries held a two-day Scholarly Resources Fair for graduate students the week before classes began. On August 24, teaching assistants were invited to meet subject librarians and learn more about the plethora of resources available for themselves and the instructional opportunities available for their classes. The session was repeated for all other graduate students on August 25. For both dates, concurrent sessions were held at both Bartle and the Science Libraries. Approximately 200 students attended this semester’s fair.
All attendees were eligible to register for a chance to win an iPod mini. The winning entry was drawn on Thursday, August 25 by Dr. Ralph Blanchard, an alumnus of Binghamton University and a distinguished member of the Libraries’ Alumni Advisory Committee, who is pictured below at left with John Meador, Director of Libraries. The winner was Stephan Ebbeler, a second-year Mathematics master’s degree student from Germany, pictured below at right with John Meador.
