Win Kindle Fire for Sharing Opinions on KSL

Graduate Students: A Kindle Fire could be yours! KSL knows you're busy, but we'd like to share an hour of your time & talk about what you use in library resources, spaces, and services. Register and participate in a session, and your immediate future might include a Kindle Fire!

We'll also talk about what the future@KSL might offer graduate students. We especially need Arts, Humanities, Social Sciences, and Weatherhead graduate students to meet with library staff in informal discussions.

Share your knowledge & remarks on your research activities—we look forward to hearing from you. Registration is required, lunch is provided. Participants from all groups will be entered in a drawing for a Kindle Fire, which could change your research, too!

• Arts & Humanities Graduate Students: Feb 6, Noon - 1:30 pm

Sessions are in the Graduate Research Commons room, SW corner (Severance Hall side), 2nd floor.

CaseLearns New Media Workshops

Time to register for Spring 2012 CaseLearns New Media Workshops! CaseLearns returns with a full lineup of New Media workshops with offerings from Digital Images & Digital Video to Desktop Publishing & Presentation Design.

This semester many of the workshops will take place in the new ACR (Active Collaboration Room), the completely remodeled KSL 215 classroom with high-tech features and comfortable new furniture. Another new offering is a series of workshops, "Tell Me About Technology." Part demonstration and part discussion, these one-hour workshops take place each Thursday on a variety of different topics ranging from e-books to Facebook!

Faculty who are interested in having students incorporate New Media projects into their courses are encouraged to contact the library's Creative New Media Officer Jared Bendis (jared.bendis@case.edu) He'll consult on project parameters, arrange for training sessions, and help faculty learn how best to take advantage of resources such as the Freedman Center and the Software Center.

Registration is required for CaseLearns, where classes continue to be posted. Please check back for new classes, and read more about the program and the Attendance Policy. We'll see you in a class, soon!
