Engineering Information Day at the Capen Libraries

On October 3rd, from 11am to 2:30pm, we will be hosting an Ei Village Engineering Information Day just inside the new entrance of the Capen Libraries on the 1st floor of Capen Hall. Engineering students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to stop by the tables set up there, where representatives from Elsevier's Ei Village will be demonstrating the suite of engineering research databases we subscribe to on the Ei Village platform, including Compendex and INSPEC. There will also be some nice give-aways and food too!
