If you have any holiday pictures or stories you would like to share, we’re doing a feature in this months issue about what people did over the break. Please send pictures and stories to me (kiera.tauro@canterbury.ac.nz) if you’d like to be included.

In 2019 I was fortunate to receive a Rosalind Patrick award to attend the 30th Annual Conference of the Australasian Association of Engineering Education, in Brisbane, Australia.

I’ll talk about the conference, what I learnt, and the amazing post conference STEM Librarians Community Practice day! I’ll probably also talk a bit about the Sunshine Coast/Brisbane, because it was my first time in Australia and I thought it was cool.

The session will be on Monday 20 January in Room 210, from 11-12.

Christmas is coming, and we wanted to do a fun Facebook post again this year for our students. Given how much we all enjoyed looking at pictures of their pets during the exam pack competition, we thought it would be fun to reciprocate and share some pictures of library pets for the holidays!

If you’d like to participate lease send me a picture of your pet/pets (kiera.tauro@canterbury.ac.nz)

It’s Pānui time! As ever, if you have any news or articles you’d like included please email Kiera, Simon, Fiona T. or Hugh.

In case anyone needs a pick-me-up today, our Exam Pack post asked people whether they liked cats or dogs better, and it’s an absolute goldmine of adorable animal pictures. I highly recommend checking it out.

Tomorrow is the day and we’ve got some delicious food lined up already, but there’s always room for more!

A new Mac operating system, Catalina, was released this week. If Mac users didn’t have the most up-to-date version of EndNote installed, it would not open once they had installed Catalina. Dave and I have had a few people contact us already about this, and I’m sure more questions will come in as more people upgrade to the new OS.

If someone has already updated their computer and EndNote is no longer working, they’ll have to go the EndNote guide and reinstall EndNote with the 64bit Mac install link that’s now live.

If a student comes to you with EndNote on a Mac, please let them know that they need to update it BEFORE upgrading to Catalina to prevent a lot of headaches.

If you have any questions about this, feel free to call me (or send students my way).

Just a reminder that Sweet and Savory Spring Signature Dish Day is coming up in less than two weeks!
