Food for Fines
November 24, 2008
Heads up, everybody!
The week following Thanksgiving break, December 1 – 5, Catholic University Library will initiate a Food for Fines amnesty intended to raise non-perishable food to donate to those in need. Patrons
with library fines from CUA libraries (only) will be able to bring in
non-perishable food items to the Mullen library circulation desk. Patrons’ fines will be forgiven $1 for every item they present to the library. In conjunction with the Campus Ministry, all food gathered will be donated to So Others Might Eat.
Think about it: Most canned goods cost less than $1 — so save some cash before the holidays, help others, and get those library fines cleaned up!
Subject Librarians = human resources
September 8, 2008
Use them! Your tuition money pays for it! 
Want in depth research help? Each reference librarian has skill in a particular subject area. (See the list here.) Feel free to exploit their expertise! Call or e-mail with your questions, and to set up an appointment for a consultation.
Reference librarians might point you to resources you hadn’t heard of or used before. And they can teach you to use the tools of research. They’ll help you to think about information gathering in innovative ways.
