October Tech Talks

Come and enjoy coffee and treats while listening to your fellow Library IT colleagues and partners present tech-related projects from around the Library.

To bring attention to October’s themes we have Tech Talk presenters from the Diversibility At Yale (DAY) affinity group and the Medical Library.
