Updates & Reminders from the Moorhead campus library

Hi everyone,

We just wanted to let you know we did a bit more housecleaning and have a free table of some magazines and books outside our library.

Also, just a reminder to those of you who still have items checked out from Spring semester (or an even earlier semester)-please return your items as soon as possible! If your item is late to the point that we sent you a lost bill, we will remove the lost item charges when you return it and you will just be charged the overdue fines and processing fee. Remember, any lost item charges, late fees, and processing fees will cause a hold to be put on your student account. If you need to make any special arrangements for payment, please contact Perry Werner (218/299-6531). If you need to see if you have any items still checked out or any fines and fees on your account, feel free to contact the library circulation desk at 218/299-6530.

Thanks and have a great summer!

Looking for something to do over summer?

For those of you who like to capture life in words, songs or images, the Library of Congress is hosting Inspiration Across the Nation. Inspiration Across the Nation is an event where you can submit your own writings, music and art to the Library of Congress and the story of what inspired you. They will then post your electronic file and the story of your inspiration to share with others. In the end, they will select some of the submissions to be retained within the Library of Congress collections.

MSCTC looking for student entrepreneurs

MSCTC looking for student entrepreneurs

DL-Online - 05/03/2008
The new Business and Entrepreneurial Services Center at Minnesota State Community & Technical College in Detroit Lakes is “open and ready for business,” says Patty Heath Gordon, director of the BES program.

The program is currently accepting applicants for summer and fall courses. Beginning this fall, the college will begin offering an associate of applied sciences degree program in business entrepreneurship.

“It’s a two-year degree program, intended for employment,” Gordon noted. But the credits (67 total) will also be fully transferable to a four-year college, for obtaining a bachelor’s degree, she added.

Also, starting this summer, the college is planning to begin offering business courses that students can take on either a credit or non-credit basis, said Gordon.

15 Coolest Firefox Tricks Ever

Fun stuff from Stepcase Lifehack: 15 Coolest Firefox Tricks Ever

Don't Forget! Return your items before you leave for break!

Hi Everyone,

Don't forget to return your school library materials to your campus library before going on break. If your items are returned after your due date, you may be assessed overdue charges. Additionally, if you have lost your item, please stop by the library to arrange to pay your lost item fees and charges. Any library fines, fees, and charges may cause a hold to be put on your student account that will delay you in the following key areas: transcript/diplomas will not be sent out and you will not be allowed to register/change your schedules.

Thanks!
