How do you say "new" in French, German, Spanish...?
The UHMC Library now has subscriptions to two online dictionaries:

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.
