Today Library and Center for Academic Technology (CAT) staff battled it out for who would reign supreme as King or Queen Duck in our annual staff Duck Drop. Master of Ceremonies, and University Archivist, Sally Childs-Helton ensured all rules were adhered to in this cut-throat battle for glory. Tensions ran high throughout, and in a finish that will go down in Duck Drop history, Tim Thomas, Associate Director of CAT, won the illustrious grand prize during his first time in the games!

We extend our congratulations to the 17 Butler students who participated this semester in the Business Research Workshop sponsored by Butler University Libraries.
Pictured are some of the interns from the Butler Business Consulting Group who earned a Certificate of Completion for the Business Research Workshop.
The Workshop, led by Business Librarian Teresa Williams, is a five-week series of in-class and online sessions on open access resources for business information. Participants receive training on resources they can freely access after graduation, including federal and state government search portals, industry and trade sites, and public library offerings for the business community. Students also learn about advanced Google search techniques for business research.
The business majors who participated in the Fall 2014 Workshop included interns from the Butler Business Consulting Group and several students who work for the Information Commons program. Each received a Certificate of Completion, plus research skills they can use now for coursework and later throughout their careers.
To find out how you can sign up for future sessions of the Business Research Workshop, please contact Teresa Williams at twilliam@butler.edu.

Pardon our noise! We’re busy installing new carpeting in our front quad in the Irwin Library! This also means that our microfilm will be unavailable until Dec 1st to allow our movers and carpet installers the room they need to work. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but trust it will be worthwhile once you see the new space!
