UBC Library invites you to help us – and possibly win an iPod Touch in the process!
We’ll soon be launching a beta version of a tool that will improve the way you’ll be able to search for materials across the UBC Library system.
During the fall semester, students, faculty and staff are invited to test it out and provide feedback on its functionality. Your input is valuable – so please help us provide the best searching system we can.
You’ll be able to try out the new search and discovery tool as of Tuesday, September 1. Just look for the link at www.library.ubc.ca.
