English 112 this semester

As I mentioned at the RIS meeting today, we will be handling English 112 this semester pretty much the same as last semester, except that I will be the contact person while Emily Alling is on maternity leave.

Teaching Associates (TOs) will be responsible for teaching their students.
TOs are expected to have attended a training session conducted by librarians last semester. If they are new or would like a refresher, there will be a training session for TOs on March 3, from 4- 5 pm in Calipari.

Most English 112 sessions will occur after Spring break. If you look in the Calipari and 1620 calendars, you will see many classes are already scheduled! Yay! TOs should email our instruction account to request a classroom: instruction@library.umass.edu

Emily has documented all this very well on a blog for the TOs:

She is also working on a "LibGuides" for the undergrads themselves to use in their research: http://umass.libguides.com/content.php?pid=4123
