Ch-ch-ch-chaaanges

Students are graduating, faculty and staff are retiring, slow summer days are here. As we near the end of convocation week, an exciting time on campus, we are entering a period of transition. Read on to see what's hot and happening.

Employee BBQ

The annual employee BBQ took place on Monday, June 8 2009 at Rec Island. Although it was a rainy day, the food was delicious, the games were fun, and the company was fantastic. Thank you to all who helped organize this fun-filled day.

SeneACTION Walking Clubs

Enjoy the warm weather while getting exercise by joining a SeneACTION walking club. Walking clubs at King Campus are scheduled for Tuesdays and Thursdays at noon.

Publication Alerts

Did you know that you can set up an e-mail alert to notify you when the latest issue of your favourite publication has been added to a database?

To figure out if Seneca Libraries subscribe to a publication and which database it can be accessed through, first search the journal title finder. Once you have identified the database, follow the instructions located here. Instructions are straight-forward and usually consist of only a few short steps.
