LIS3353 - Technologies for Information Professionals
ATTENDANCE LINK: https://jrm4.com/3353roll/output.html
Welcome to the course!
The first front page - in Canvas - is the primary source of material for this course; everything you need for the course will be available here. Many links go through http://jrm4.com (including a mirror of this page for backup and emergency purposes); feel free to browse that as well. Links to all tools and readings will be available from the front page.
The official methods for contacting me are in person during class, or via email, at jmarks@fsu.edu .
Note: I'm also a big fan of Discord. It is in no way required, but I will make my semi-private (non-profit) Discord server available to you all, with a channel dedicated to this class. You may use this for class-wide discussions, as well as a meeting point for team work.
No textbooks are required, and nothing is due for the first class.
Here is the +Official Syllabus - but About the Class is probably more useful to you.
See you in class!
