Libraries to Offer Free Research Seminars for Graduate Students

Registration is not required; please click on the link for the session you wish to attend to join the meeting. Three sessions of this seminar will be offered:
Attendees will learn about the top 10 services the University Libraries offer to help them get started in research and instruction activities and uncover pathways and support that will enable them to conduct effective research. All sessions will provide the same information, so participants need only attend one.
Graduate Refresher, the second seminar, will be offered in Mullins Library room 439 and virtually from 12:30-1:30 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 10. This overview of library basics tailored to graduate students will be presented by librarian Megan York.
