Hirsh Library Newsletter July 2021
By Amanda Nevius, on behalf of the Hirsh Library
A special welcome to our new PGs! For those who don’t know, just about each month I send a newsletter with Hirsh Library monthly happenings and updates.
[Amanda Nevius] sent a special announcement last week regarding the Hirsh Library’s Service Desk reopening. Attached is a pdf of that email to this one, just in case you missed it.

Dental Librarian Office Hours in July:
Throughout the month of July, I will be hosting office hours on Zoom by appointment.
Book a time here (click on “Schedule Appointment.”)
Don’t forget you can also always email me (amanda.nevius@tufts.edu). I answer emails at regular intervals during normal business hours, unless I am out of the office.
Resource Highlight: Accessing Our Resources
I’ve updated the How Can I Access That? guide to reflect updates to our Inter-Library Loan service.
You’re invited to the Anti-Racism Reading Group’s Summer Reading Series:
Throughout the summer months, we’re discussing the book – Body and Soul: The Black Panther Party and the Fight against Medical Discrimination by Alondra Nelson.
New Resource: Textbook: Digital Workflow in Reconstructive Dentistry
Published in 2019, the textbook Digital Workflow in Reconstructive Dentistry includes chapters on intraoral scanning, digital radiography, CAD/CAM, and more. We have this available both as a print and an electronic book.
Virtual Workshops:
We’re getting ready to resume our Virtual Workshops on Zoom. Please take a moment and send me your suggestion(s) for workshop topics for August on this Qualtrics form.
Featured Article:
Each newsletter I will draw out one dentistry/oral health related recent publication that I think will be of interest to the TUSDM community.
