Take the Library’s iPod Tour
The library now has a new way for students to learn about the library. You can now borrow our iPod to take an audio tour around Alden. Simply stop by the Learning Commons Desk on the second floor of Alden to check out our iPod. The tour of all seven floors covers the basics of the library, and will take about 30 minutes to complete.
Note (4/22/09): the original tour is out of date and has been taken down. Go here, instead, to get the lastest version of the tour in English and several foreign languages :

Una buena idea para conectar con los usuarios, ¿o no? [...]
