MKT 385 Services Marketing Course Guide

For those of you taking MKT 385 this semester, I developed a course guide that includes the library resources as required in this course.  I used the course syllabus provided by Dr. Sharland and also had his approval after he reviewed the guide.  I hope you will find the guide useful (there is a feedback mechanism under the tab titled "Help and More") and do come see me or any of the staff at the front desk if you need further assistance in this course.

Here is the link to the guide:

"Meet the Firms Day" in the Library August 31st

Our annual "Meet the Firms Day" for 2011 is August 31st from 12:30 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. and the library will close from 11:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. to prepare and host this event.  The objective of the event is to provide our senior accounting students and our local CPA firms an opportunity to meet each other and to prepare for jobs and interviews after they graduate.

While the library is closed, students can use the available computer labs downstairs.  We will re-open at 3:00 p.m. until our normal closing at 9:00 p.m.

We are delighted to host this popular event and welcome our visitors!

Fall Semester starts Monday August 22nd

The Mitchell College of Business Library has been closed during our Interim Session but I, along with another member of my staff, use this time to catch up on everything that we need to do and to prepare for the start of a new semester.

I can hear the band practicing outside, students are moving in and I am seeing students in our hallway wanting to know "is the Library open yet".  Not yet but almost!

We will open Monday, August 22nd at 7:30 a.m. and our fall semester hours will be posted on the outside board and on the library website.  However, we also have our semester hours on bookmarks we have available in the library and hope you will pick up several when you arrive back on campus.

We will be closed for a short period of time on August 31st for an annual event where we host local CPA firms to meet our senior students.  We will post the hours (11:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.) so you will have plenty of time to prepare plus ensure there is another computer lab for your use.

Other closures will be Labor Day (September 5th), Fall Break (October 2-4) and Thanksgiving (11/23 at Noon but re-open Sunday, November 27th).

Also, note that we will not begin opening on Sundays until September 11th at 2 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.

So, this is much to remember so just come get a bookmark and you can enter into your own calendaring system so you are aware of our hours this fall semester.

We look forward to your return next week!
