Staff news #1

Congratulations, Public Services Librarian Eileen Kopren, this year's recipient of a Dickinson Chamber of Commerce Educator of the Year award. Eileen was recognized for her years of service to Dickinson State University.

Featured here is the fall 2006 pilot project Eileen developed for faculty/librarian research collaboration.

Way to go, Eileen!

Thank you for all that you do!

Check out the great display celebrating student library workers and volunteers, keeping up with some of the myriad tasks that make Stoxen Library a great campus destination -- and one where you can find the materials you need to complete your research, too.

Thank you, Corina, for creating such an eye-catching display, and thank you to the Dickinson State University art class for the beautiful book ends.

Podcasting Legal Guide

Some of you may be considering (or already are) using podcasting in your classes. Creative Commons has just created a Podcasting Legal Guide that addresses such topics as legal issues in creating your own podcast, issues in distributing your podcast and the basic background of podcasting. They have also included several links to other helpful websites including how to podcast, search engines and directories for podcasts and other websites with legal information regarding podcasts.

End of Semester

Information regarding extended hours and end of semester and summer hours is available on the Library web page. The Stoxen Library staff wishes you the best of luck with finals. Have a great summer.
