Library Website Scavenger Hunt

The library website is one of your most powerful tools to help patrons. There is information about all the services and materials that the library offers to patrons, as well as detailed explanations of our policies. This training is designed to familiarize you with the website and allow you to explore the site. Try to find the answers by yourself, but if you’re having trouble, feel free to ask your supervisor to help find the specific page. There is also a library FAQ page in the upper right corner of the screen which may be helpful in answering the questions.

Please keep the library website open in another tab as you answer the questions, you will need it in order to be successful! Email your answers to Jess at j.valli@northeastern.edu
