READY, SET, GO WORKSHOPS

Ready Set Go is a series of in-library workshops offered at the beginning of the fall and winter terms. The content is very similar to the topics listed here, with the added opportunity to ask questions and get in-person help with library research.



NOTE: Due to COVID-19, we will not be offering workshop sessions for the Fall 2020 term. Help is still available through our help chat service or by making an appointment with a Librarian.
