Helaine sent me a photo of herself presenting a copy of her book to the President of India which I’m having a problem uploading because WordPress doesn’t allow .bmp uploads, and the URL of her website: http://ns.hampshire.edu/helaine. Nice clean site, Helaine.
Looking forward to seeing you all next Friday! The UMass librarians will provide some refreshments, so those of you coming from elsewhere just bring your own selves!

Paulina started work at the Integrated Sciences and Engineering Library this week. She is a recent graduate of the Simmons College program, and holds undergraduate degrees from Wellesley in chemistry and mathematics, and a Masters from Rennselaer Polytech in the Natural Sciences. She spent more than twenty years teaching math and science, and particularly chemisty, at the high school level. We look forward to benefitting from her expertise and experience.
Paulina’s new colleagues are very happy to welcome her! Some time in the near future we should have another meeting of the Five Colleges Science Librarians so that you all may meet her.
Helaine is in the process of joining this blog; in the mean time, she sent me two links she would like uploaded:
Here is the URL for How to Read a Scientific Research Paper:
http://hampshire.edu/~apmNS/design/RESOURCES/HOW_READ.html
and here is another
http://carbon.hampshire.edu/%7Embruno/general/reading.html
called TIPS ON READING AND WRITING ABOUT PRIMARY ARTICLES.
I hope that this weblog will allow Five College science librarians to better keep in touch with each other – to share ideas and news, joys and sorrows, plan more get-togethers…
