APA Moves to 7th Edition

The 7th Edition of the APA Manual was released at the end of 2019.  All SDAP students are now required to use it.  We have copies of it on Closed Reserve.  See photo below to help you locate it.

If you get questions about how to do APA citations, please refer students to the Academic Resource Center (ARC) located on the 2nd floor of this building.  The phone number is 614-234-3654.

In addition, here are a couple of helpful links for the new APA:

• APA Style
• APA Quick Reference Guide

Please let Noreen or Kaitlyn know if you have any questions.

Locking Laptop Cabinet

When you lock the Laptop Cabinet, be sure take the lock off and then hook the padlock around the latch so it lays flat (see example below).

Some are locking it in such a way that makes it is difficult to unlock.  When you try to lock it without taking the padlock off first, the result looks something like the example below.  Avoid this method!!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask Noreen or Kaitlyn.

Important Updates

New Year/New Date

When you are creating or updating Library accounts, remember the expiration date is one year from the given day.  So, make it 2021 (not 2020).

ExamSoft & Library Laptops

With the adoption of ExamSoft, many students will be borrowing laptops to access Examplify and take tests.  Please note that Laptops 13-20 are the only ones with ExamSoft loaded.  The other laptops do not have the capacity to be upgraded and support the ExamSoft platform.  This includes the MacBooks.  Currently, we are trying to load ExamSoft on iPads and will let you know if it works.  

If students or faculty have questions about this, please direct them to Stevo or Noreen.

If you have questions about these or other matters, ask Noreen or Kaitlyn.

Spring Cleaning in Winter

While working during the Holiday Break, Nikki took the initiative to straighten out the Library Front Desk.  Now you can find disinfecting and monitor wipes in the bottom drawer of the cabinet (where the candy used to be).  It gives us all more room to work.  Thanks, Nikki! 😃

Hope everyone had a great Holiday Break!  Please check your e-mail from last week for the Library work schedule update.  

As always, please let Noreen or Kaitlyn know if you have a question.
