Let\u2019s take a look at some of these groups!<\/p>\n<p>The Campus Writing Center:<br \/>\nNew to Ellis this year, the Libraries are happy to host our Campus Writing Center in room 115 on the first floor! This is a new location for the writing tutors (they used to be just above the caf\u00e9), and includes more opportunities for drop in writing and research consultations. The Writing Center offers writing help for any subject or any reason. From an outline to a final check, the tutors at the Writing Center are happy to help make your writing the best it can be! More information is available at https:\/\/writingcenter.missouri.edu\/appointments\/.<\/p>\n<p>Workshops and Webinars:<br \/>\nWorkshops and Webinars are often hosted in the library covering a diverse number of topics on library functionality, resources, and research processes. Recent topics have included AI tools, writing literature reviews, and new functionality of library resources. These are open to everyone and more information is available at https:\/\/libraryguides.missouri.edu\/workshops. If you are unable to attend a workshop, or are interested in one that has already occurred, you can view recordings of previous workshops at https:\/\/libraryguides.missouri.edu\/learn\/workshop-recordings.<\/p>\n<p>Silent Reading Book Club:<br \/>\nA no-pressure student club for all students to bring a book of their choice and enjoy reading alongside others. The group meets in Ellis room 114A from 4-5 p.m. about twice a month. Find more information at https:\/\/engage.missouri.edu\/libraries\/rsvp_boot?id=442555.

Choose any book that relates to the monthly theme (or even one that doesn\u2019t! and join other students in room 114A from 4-5 p.m. on the first Wednesday of every month to discuss the plot, author, writing, and more.
