Library Workshops

Starting this fall, the Library is launching a series of voluntary workshops for students on a variety of key topics, such as:  database searching, evaluating sources, ePortfolios, avoiding plagiarism, and more. Students may register for as many as they like; anyone completing 5 workshops will earn the Information Literacy Certificate, which is CCR eligible. We hope you will consider recommending these workshops to your students. Click here for more information on the workshops and about information literacy in higher education.

New Whisleblower Policy

Please be advised that the college has a new Whistleblower Policy, which was approved by our Board of Governors in June. The policy has been put in place to ensure College operations are conducted ethically and with integrity. It encourages members of the College community to report improper activity and wrongdoing without fear of retaliation or reprisal.
