Poster Session from new 511 students

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

Boot Camp is in session!

IST 511, the first class in the MSLIS course sequence, is a week-long experience for online students where they travel to Syracuse for an introduction to the program.

One of the assignments is to do a poster session on an issue in the profession where librarians disagree.

If you would like to come and see the posters and talk with the new students, join us on Friday, July 25th, from 2-4pm in the Bird Library lobby.
