Feeling lost? This week, at the entrance to the John C. Hitt Library, an Information Kiosk has been set up for anyone with a question about UCF. Take a minute to talk to the friendly Libraries folks. They will connect you to the information you need. Start off the new academic year with a smile.
Matt DeSalvo is the UCF Libraries 2015 Employee of the Year! Matt is an End User Computing Specialist, part of the Libraries Information Technology and Digital Initiatives. Matt leads a team that helps library users at the John C. Hitt Library 3rd floor LibTech Desk. If you have checked out an iPad or other equipment, or have a question about using technology to get to library resources, Matt may have helped you. Matt received his award today, at the Libraries Annual Service Awards. Also honored: Libraries employees with 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 years of library service. Congratulations to everyone!
