Time for Another Round of 14 Days to Have Your Say!
14 Days to Have Your Say!
Wednesday, October 10 – Tuesday, October 23
It’s Time to Tell Us What’s on Your Mind.
The Bentley Library is pleased to announce the launch of 14 Days to Have Your Say!.
This limited-life blog is an open forum for the Bentley community – an opportunity to post your comments, criticisms, and kudos, as well as to read what others are saying about the library. We want you to feel comfortable posting publicly, so we even allow you to post anonymously or with an alias.
Our past two installments of 14 Days to Have Your Say! (October 21 – November 2, 2008 and March 16 – March 29, 2010) were very successful, and we made many changes to our services, policies and resources based upon the thoughtful feedback received through the blog. We hope that this installment is just as popular and fruitful. So, don’t be shy, tell us what’s on your mind!
Have your say at http://library.bentley.edu/14days.
Do you have questions about this project? Please visit the About and FAQs pages, or contact the Reference Desk at refdesk@bentley.edu or 781-891-2300.
On Display: New & Notable Nonfiction
Our new display places the spotlight on some of the most notable and interesting nonfiction received at the library within the last six months.
Bentley Library reference librarians have hand-picked these books from each of their subject areas to bring attention to titles you may have missed when they were first added to the shelves. You’ll find a wide variety of highly recommended academic titles, as well as bestselling nonfiction that will appeal to all readers.
Stop by and browse our selections. We will continue to add new books that catch our eye as they arrive, so check back often!
