Library Champions



This week's library champion is Ms. Tonya Moore. Ms. Moore uses the Dorothy W. Hightower Collaborative Learning Center & Library every couple of weeks online and when meeting with students. Moore uses the library for research and references for students. Moore also holds events in the library. Moore’s favorite database to share with students is the Mergent Intellect database. This database provides many resources for students. Moore appreciates the efforts of Jim Rickerson when he “set up a demonstration on research for students.” Moore recommends “the access to computers, the laptops for training, and the smart boards for instruction.” Moore loves the “accessibility of resources for faculty, staff, and students.” Moore enjoys the friendliness of the library staff, and she is “really excited about the technology. “ The library provides a “very professional space for Career Services when we perform our mock interviews with the students. The downstairs computers help the students update their resumes on the spot.”
