HELPFUL HIGHLIGHT
Each newsletter I will be sharing tips, campus resources, and skills that can help you personally, academically, and professionally. This newsletter’s highlight is UNL Libraries!
As you’re studying for final exams and working on final papers and projects, UNL Libraries has several resources to help you! Here are just a handful:
1. Spaces to study
2. Resources—You can check out/access resources from our own collection. If we don’t have a resource you need, you can request it through Interlibrary Loan!
3. Citation Managers—This one is one of my personal favorites! Citation Management Tools like RefWorks, Mendeley, and Zotero can help you create and keep track of your resources as you’re working on your research papers/projects.
4. Subject Specialists—Did you know that you can set up a research consultation with a Librarian? If you’re having trouble finding resources for your paper/project or you’re not quite sure how to get started, request a consultation!
5. One Button Studio—If you need to record a presentation, the One Button Studio is a great space to create a high quality video! It’s also a great space to record yourself practicing a presentation so you can watch it back and identify areas to work on.
You can find all this information and more on the UNL Libraries website at libraries.unl.edu.

ADVISING UPDATE
Be sure to plan ahead for when your finals exams will take place: https://registrar.unl.edu/academic-calendar/final-exam/
Summer is coming up soon! While the spring semester will be ending, I will still be available for appointments. Summer can be a great time to talk more in depth about your degree plan, experiences you want to pursue, and how you can set yourself up for future success.
