Tessie Holliday, Library Technician Assistant

  1. What are some of the Library's most commonly asked questions? 

    1. Where can I study/plug in my laptop? Lots of places! We can walk around together to see what might work best for you.  Just ask.

    2. How do I print something in the library? This page is super helpful when learning how to print at the library. - https://uscupstate.libguides.com/TechHelp/printing 

    3. Where is [a professor's office/campus resource/the dining hall]? We have a ton of maps and lists at each of the service desks, but here is a link to some common telephone numbers that might help. https://uscupstate.libguides.com/UpstateFAQ 

    4. What time do you close? Check our library hours here 

    5. Do you have a charger I could borrow? 

  2. What are you reading right now? 

    1. I'm just starting Outlander by Diana Gabaldon and Night by Elie Wiesel, and I'm in the midst of reading Neuroqueer Heresies by Nick Walker and, The 57 Bus by Dashka Slater 

  3. What is something you want students to know about the library? 

    1. I want students to know that they don't need to struggle alone! College life can be overwhelming and stressful, and it's hard to know where to start when you need help with a problem. Librarians are good problem-solvers, so whether it's help with the research process, finding a campus or community resource, or connecting you with the right people to answer your questions, the library is a great starting place. We're here to help you!
