How do you say "new" in French, German, Spanish...?

The UHMC Library now has subscriptions to two online dictionaries:

Oxford Dictionary

The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) is widely regarded as the accepted authority on the English language. It is an unsurpassed guide to the meaning, history, and pronunciation of 600,000 words— past and present—from across the English-speaking world.

Oxford Language Dictionaries (Chinese, French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish)

The innovative Oxford Language Dictionaries Online site offers essential language resources never before available online: fully searchable, completely comprehensive bilingual dictionaries, and unique study materials that provide extra help with learning and using an expanding range of languages.

Right now they are only available on campus, but very soon will also be remotely available. You can get to the databases from the library's homepage (www.maui.hawaii.edu/library) and click the "Search Us" link.

Librarians in Metaspace and Beyond!

New SLIM Comic Takes Librarians into Metaspace

Emporia State University in Kanas created a marketing resource aimed at generating newfound excitement for librarianship and increasing the awareness of the many opportunities that an MLS degree can provide. From the same team that created Library of the Living Dead and Monster Clash, Supreme Librarians in Metaspace is a promotional comic that highlights the many facets of librarianship in a quirky, tongue-in-cheek manner. We hope that this resource will encourage prospective and current SLIM students, alumni, and librarians around the world to take a look at the profession in a new light. And maybe have a laugh or two while doing it.
