Shelly McDavid has accepted the position of Access Services and Learning Commons Librarian at the Curtis Laws Wilson Library at Missouri S&T. Her last working day at MU Libraries will be Wednesday, March 11th.

The MU Libraries have registered for the Electronic Resources & Libraries 2015 online conference for February 23-25. They will be broadcasting sessions from multiple tracks simultaneously, so several rooms within Ellis Library have been reserved. In addition, they are taping the sessions that are not being streamed live and making those available the next day.
