Welcoming new students to the library

Earlier this fall, PTS PhD student Kelsey Lambright and reference librarian (and Director of Research and Public Services) Kate Skrebutenas developed a "brochure and passport"-style way to introduce new students to the Library during orientation.

Kelsey greeted the students as they arrived in the building and gave each person a self-guiding library brochure and a “passport” to be stamped at five key library locations where they could meet some of the library staff: Susan Britt (Circulation); Kate (Reference); Jeremy Wallace (North Wing Periodicals); Ken Henke (Special Collections); and Patrick Milas (the Digital Media Lab). Students who collected all five punches on their passport received a card for a cup of coffee or tea at the Brick Café.
