Hello TUSDM and happy April!

In response to suggestions and requests when we went hybrid, I send periodic newsletters on behalf of Hirsh Library highlighting things that may be of interest to TUSDM.

Resource Highlight: Dentistry LibGuide
LibGuides are research guides created by Hirsh Library staff. If you search the Library’s website, the LibGuide content does not necessarily display. Please take a moment to visit the Dentistry LibGuide to see the research help on various topics currently available there. Have a suggestion or a request for a subpage on it? Just send me an email.

Anti-Racism Reading Group (ARRG): April Meeting

Please join the Hirsh Health Sciences Library in our third ARRG discussion on Friday, April 23^rd noon to 1pm EST! You do not need to have attended any previous ARRG meetings to attend this one. We hope this will be an empowering, interdisciplinary space of learning and unlearning that will catalyze change in your respective departments, disciplines, and fields. Learn more and register here.

Upcoming April Virtual Workshops:

Virtual workshops are free, open to the entire Tufts community, and held via Zoom.
