Gslisadjuncts Newly revised APA PPT, February 2016
by Claudia Perry 09 Feb '16

09 Feb '16

Dear Students and Colleagues, Despite the inclement weather, we had a very successful APA Curriculum Space workshop last night, thanks in large part to the spirited engagement of Dr. Harry Kibirige’s 701 class. They asked excellent questions and their participation added a great deal to the quality of the discussion. Attached please find the updated APA PPT, which includes revised links, omits some outdated materials, and adds a specific example of how to cite an image in context. My appreciation to Dr. Keren Dali for pointing out the difficulties students in her 702 class experienced last semester with citing selected types of formats, including online images. My appreciation also to Ms. Bridget Kavanagh, for reserving the conference room and AV support, and to Mr. Virgil Wong for his assistance in setting up and picking up the AV equipment. Thanks to all and Happy Lunar New Year! cp Claudia A. Perry, MLS, Ph.D Associate Professor Director of Admissions Graduate School of Library and Information Studies Queens College, CUNY Flushing, NY 11367 claudia.perry(a)qc.cuny.edu 718-997-3790

Gslisadjuncts APA Curr Space & Internship event still on--LISSA wine & cheese rescheduled due to snow
by Claudia Perry 08 Feb '16

08 Feb '16

Dear colleagues, A reminder that there will be two important events held tonight, Monday, 2-8-15; the LiSSA event has been postponed. An introduction to APA Style will be held in the President’s Conference Room #2, in Rosenthal Library during Curriculum Space, 5:45-7:10. Regular 3:55 classes will end early, and 6:40 classes will begin late, to accommodate these special events. New York City Small Business Services will be on campus on Monday, February 8th from 4pm until 7pm to conduct interviews for 4 paid internship positions they have available. They will be located at a table outside of the PC Computer Lab (Rosenthal 240). They will conduct interviews in the GSLIS Conference Room within the GSLIS office. Please see flyers below. A Welcome Back Wine and Cheese Mixer, sponsored by LISSA, has been postponed to Feb. 22. Please see flyer below. The introduction to APA Style, with an emphasis on citations and references, is especially important for students in LBSCI 701, and for those in required core courses who have no previous experience with the 6th edition of the APA Style Manual. It should serve as an important refresher for any students needing to brush up on their APA skills, especially for those enrolled in LBSCI 709. We hope to see you there! Claudia A. Perry, MLS, Ph.D Associate Professor Director of Admissions Graduate School of Library and Information Studies Queens College, CUNY Flushing, NY 11367
