Think About Bobst This Fall!

Thinking about where to study this Fall? Bobst Library may seem like a large, crowded, busy building to navigate but the staff and resources will prove very useful to you in your studies!

Explore the library to find a spot that you feel comfortable studying in on a regular basis and try to build a routine study schedule.


Soon, the hours for Fall 2013 semester can be found here: http://library.nyu.edu/about/access.html

Some convenient features brought to you by Bobst:

1) IM With a Librarian! Go to http://library.nyu.edu/ask/ and IM a Bobst libarian for help with finding a source, APA formatting, etc.
2) Group Study Rooms - Do you prefer to study with a group of classmates? Reserve a group study room here: http://library.nyu.edu/services/group_study.html

3) Take advantage of the Health Sciences Libraries too! Find more information here:  http://hsl.med.nyu.edu/
4) Use NYU RefWorks! This is a web-based tool, free of charge, that helps you manage and organize your research. Import references directly into a bibliography and save some time. Click here for more info.

There is a wealth of information on the library website
And don't forget, if you need help with time management or study skills - you can attend one of our workshops. Contact nursingadvising@nyu.edu for more information.

See you in the fall!

Summer is almost here...now what?


The semester is winding down; the weather is getting warmer, so we're dedicating this post to spring/summer in NYC. What are your plans this summer? Whether you're still in class or taking some time off, if you're sticking around NYC try visiting the following places:

Bronx Zoo - Get in touch with nature and grab some friends for a trip to the zoo. It's a fun and relaxing way to get out of the city and get your mind off of stressful schoolwork. Visit the zoo's website to find out more about special attractions this summer.

Central Park - Pack a lunch, grab your books, and study outside this summer! Or if you want to visit the park for a live concert, view the schedule at: http://www.cityparksfoundation.org/calendar/.

Check out one of the food vendors at the High Line! The High Line’s food vendors are open daily on the High between Little West 12th and West 18th Streets. All food vendors are open! Vendors include:  Blue Bottle Coffee, Delaney Barbecue’s SmokeLine, La Newyorkina, L’Arte del Gelato, Melt Bakery, People’s Pops, Sigmund’s Pretzels, and The Taco Truck, as well as Terroir at The Porch. Yummy!

We hope the rest of your semester goes well.
