In addition to instructional time, each day of FORC Camp includes an office hours/tea time at 3pm located in Bobst 745 . This gathering offers opportunities for one on one consults, meeting with subject area librarians, and building connections with your graduate student colleagues.
This year's camp will also include a keynote address on Tuesday, Aug. 26 and Aug. 30 at 3:15 pm. Our speaker will provide you with a window into the many ways you can apply the skills you develop during camp in your academic and professional careers. The keynote is open to anyone at NYU, so please spread the word!
