Don’t be afraid to make changes

Transition is a key word this week. Many of you are new to York and looking for a path to your future. I guess everyone is giving you advice. My suggestion is: if you really do not like a class, quickly change it. I probably changed one course each year and never regretted it. In fact, I often discovered new interests and strengths. For example, I dropped Introduction to Political Science and took Introduction to Biology instead and ended up majoring in Biology.

Welcome to York.  It is the sixth university where I have worked or studied. I truly love this school. My job as University Librarian is to give you great library services, collections and spaces. This blog is one endeavour to get your feedback and guidance to improve your libraries at York; Scott Library, Bronfman Business Library, Frost Library, Steacie Science and Engineering Library, and, let us not forget the “virtual” York University Libraries (the library website). Feel free to review and respond to previous blog posts that talked about IT, my new iPad-mini and study spaces in the library.
