This session offers introductory training for using Git and Github for version control for source code, data, and other use cases.
Geared toward intermediate or occasional spreadsheet users, in this seminar we will demonstrate AI tools within Excel and Google Sheets and show how to use free versions of AI tools like ChatGPT and CoPilot to design and document formulas and spreadsheets. Safe use of AI tools (protecting Lehigh data) will be emphasized and explained.
Lehigh Libraries Special Collections holds a wealth of primary source research materials. Come learn how to find useful and interesting materials using our suite of digital discovery tools. You will learn how to navigate The Preserve, Lehigh's institutional repository, ArchiveSpace, our home for archival collections, the digitized Brown & White archive, the Special Collections exhibit website, which documents a rich 20-year history of fascinating Library exhibitions.
Many exploratory research computing projects will eventually grow to require larger amounts of computational resources to answer larger, more complicated research questions. This seminar will teach you to use the Lehigh high-performance computing (HPC) cluster to build parallel scientific software for answering larger questions using simple Linux tools along with the HPC scheduler (named SLURM).

This seminar will demonstrate fun and interesting use cases that highlight some of AI's strengths. First, we will use the technology to automatically read and extract text from both typed and handwritten materials drawn from Lehigh Libraries Special Collections. Then, we will use AI to better understand these sample documents. Finally, we will demonstrate how this text can be exported to editable documents and spreadsheets that can be used for future analysis.
Learn about lehigh's foremost cloud storage option -- its setup, advantages, and features!
This seminar will introduce you to Zotero, a tool to help you organize, track, manage, share, and cite references. The session will cover creating an account, importing references, structuring your reference libraries, and creating a bibliography.
Learn how to leverage the embedded AI features in the Atlassian project management tools: Jira, Trello, Jira Service Management
This session is an overview of Web Accessibility guidelines for anyone who maintains website content at Lehigh.
Research computing projects can have a large impact if they are portable and easy to share with new collaborators. In this seminar, you will learn how to package your scientific computations in a Linux-based container system (Docker and Apptainer). Containers can make it easy to take your work to larger public supercomputing centers, and improve the reproducibility and openness of your scientific software.
Whether you're sending announcements to large or small audiences, you'll learn easy steps you can take to ensure messages can be read easily by everyone, including folks who use assistive technologies. This short session gives easy hints that everyone can use today, without special tools or tech skills.
We'll cover some Zoom Phone features you may not have explored, such as delegation, shared lines, call forwarding and ring tones. Bring your questions!

This session is intended as a basic introduction to accessibility for content creators who are unfamiliar with the topic and are looking for a quick start. We use MS Word to illustrate concepts of accessibility and give easy-to-implement, practical tips for creating documents that are accessible to broad audiences.
This session is formerly called Data Backup and Management, and has been updated to include changes to university storage quotas. This seminar offers best practices for caring for your files -- wherever they are -- and making sure you always have your data.
When a research computing project evolves to answer more nuanced questions, it inevitably requires more computational power and generates more data. This seminar will teach you the best practices for storing large, complex datasets so they can easily be analyzed and mined for new insights. These methods will apply to any research questions that depend on big data.
Learn how JSTOR's AI Research Tool can assist with your research and what guardrails are in place to promote learning and protect privacy. Time will be provided for participants to explore this tool on their own.
Learn how to find and analyze research with scite.ai, an artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled tool that will be available as a pilot for the Spring 2026 semester. This session will review the basics about scite.ai, including the scite Assistant tool. Time will be provided for questions and feedback.
Learn how to save time and boost productivity; automate tasks like scheduling meetings and creating to-do lists; enhance creativity and collaboration; unlock the power of AI in your daily work; and learn practical tips and tricks for using Gemini in Google Workspace.
