UK Libraries participated in the new UK faculty orientation sponsored by the Center for the Enhancement of Learning and Teaching and the Office of Faculty Advancement held August 20 at the E.S. Good Barn. New faculty spent the day learning about resources and support services at UK, and hearing from veteran faculty about successful strategies for their first year.

Robert Shapiro, Public Health Librarian, participated on the panel, “This Worked for Me: Successful Strategies for Your First Year.” Senior Associate Dean Mary Beth Thomson provided new faculty with an overview of UK Libraries.

The highlight of the event was a resource fair during mid-day. UK Libraries faculty interacted with new faculty members providing information about UK Libraries resources and services. Thanks to UK Libraries faculty Valerie Perry, Adrian Ho, Mary Molinaro, Rick Brewer, Beth Kraemer, Carla Cantagallo, Jaime Marie Burton, and Debbie Sharp for participating.
