CIAO 3
International studies is a popular part of the curriculum for students at both the undergraduate and the graduate level. It is also a significant area of research for faculty here at Northwestern. The University Library subscribes to a unique electronic resource, which demonstrates the advantages of applying this technology to the dissemination of information. That resource is Columbia International Affairs Online (CIAO), an in-depth collection of information from a variety of sources, all of which relate to international studies.

Digital Media Services this Fall
Bring us your slides, your audio, your video! Digital Media Services, now entering its 2nd year of operation, has been quite busy digitizing various media for classes. While we have been busy, there is certainly time to update you on the latest news concerning DMS services and activities.
