LITE Bites

LITE (Library Instruction To Everyone) Bites are short videos created by Diane Mizrachi, reference/instruction librarian in the College Library, and designed by Jeff Warden and his student production team with the help of Stephen Sherwin of College Library. These videos for UCLA undergraduate students were created under the generous auspices of the Office of Residential Life. Each tells the tale of various UCLA Library services with a humorous, fun theme.
