Sponsored by the OCLC Developer Network and the University of Washington libraries, the WorldCat Mashathon will be held Thursday and Friday, November 5-6 at Odegaard Undergraduate Library. Attendees will spend two days brainstorming and coding mash-ups with local systems and other Web services to take advantage of all that WorldCat, the world's largest and most comprehensive bibliographic database, has to offer.
Undergraduates are provided with an opportunity to learn about current, exciting research in a wide variety of disciplines, including the process of discovery, how faculty come up with an idea for research, how inquiry is structured in the different disciplines, and how students can become involved in the knowledge-making process.
Labs and libraries that use the Dawg Prints system have begun to roll out changes in order to make Dawg Prints more green. In addition to using 100% recycled paper in our printers and copiers, labs have also begun to change their default queues to print 2-sided, saving paper. These changes will occur throughout the quarter so keep an eye out for default 2-sided printing in your favorite lab.
