This came through our mail this morning and it might be of interest to ASIS&T types:
UBC Science and Engineering Library and UBC IEEE Student Chapter have invited George Plosker, IEEE Client Services Manager, to present a talk on the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. The session will take place on Monday November 7th in Kaiser 2020 from 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm. Refreshments will be served.
If you are an IEEE member, a science or engineering faculty, postdoc, student, graduate student in technology, even a non-engineering student interested in technology, you know how knowledgeable research skills will contribute to your success. The University of British Columbia community has access to the IEEE Xplore, a digital library providing full text access to more than three million IEEE documents. Learn how to use IEEE Xplore in a “best practices” manner. This one hour talk and demo will cover all the latest features and insider tips when searching IEEE Xplore. See how use of IEEE resources can enhance your career. Plus, learn what IEEE Xplore can do that Google can’t!
That sounds interesting to me, and hey, free food! Check it out and maybe share what you learn at our next Cool Tools Day?
