Introducing the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education
Information literacy is a set of abilities related to the reflective discovery of information, understanding how information is produced and valued, and using information to create new knowledge and participate in communities of learning. The Association of College & Research Libraries has recently established a new Information Literacy Framework for Higher Education that includes six core concepts, also known as “threshold” concepts, which act as gateways to understanding information literacy. Learning about and engaging with these concepts is a starting point for becoming an expert consumer and creator of information. The Information Literacy department has created this series of slides to introduce these new core concepts to the campus community. You will be seeing them reflected in our teaching as well as in the online instructional materials you encounter on our site.

Private Internet Access VPN Service
The dns leak protection feature activates VPN dns leak protection. This ensures that DNS requests are routed through the VPN. This enables the greatest level of privacy and security but may cause connectivity issues in non-standard network configurations. This can be enabled and disabled in the Windows application, while it is enabled by default on our macOS application. We use our own private DNS servers for your DNS queries while on the VPN. After connecting we set your operating system's DNS servers to 209.222.18.222 and 209.222.18.218.

A New History of the Second World War
In 1936, Charles Lindbergh arrived in Berlin to inspect the Luftwaffe. The visit had been arranged by Truman Smith, an ingenious intelligence officer who knew that Herman Göring, the Nazi air marshal, would find the American aviator’s celebrity irresistible; Lindbergh flew to Berlin with his wife, Anne, as his co-pilot, and then, along with Smith and another officer, spent a few days meeting German pilots, inspecting operations, and even flying several German planes. (The group also had dinner at Göring’s house, where they met his pet lion cub, Augie.)
DIY guide: Shelving
What will go on the shelves? This obvious but all-important question will determine what width and depth you need the shelves to be, their thickness, the space between each one, and the horizontal space between the supporting brackets. Do you plan to paint them? If yes, then you can save money by using MDF (some DIY stores and timber merchants will cut MDF to size for you). If no, then you need to think about how you want them to look.
