 " Every time I hear about [the Drexel Libraries] I find out new things and realize [they offer resources] people are not even aware of...
The Libraries may be the one thing that links all faculty, staff, and students together—the need for information. ”

Last month, we sat down with Heather Cai to find out more about the many technology applications and systems that keep the Drexel Libraries running smoothly.

The Libraries recently welcomed 13 new members and six returning members to its Library Advisory Group (LAG). This year, the LAG will play an even more proactive role in strengthening two-way communication channels between their colleges and departments and the Libraries. 

Last month, the Drexel Libraries kicked off its new faculty seminar series with a session on guiding teaching faculty and staff to effectively discover and access resources for their courses.
