In this event, two speakers will share anecdotes on major EDI pitfalls they have encountered and strategies others can use to prevent them in the future. Together, we will discuss common pitfalls in a collaborative and low-pressure environment.</p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-primary-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img class="no-float" src="/channels/files/channels/styles/wysiwyg_medium/public/channels/image/edi_oops_english.png?itok=6ILm8N14" width="160" height="50" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-published-date field-type-datestamp field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><div class="custom-multi-date"><div class="multi-date first"><span class="label">Published: </span><span class="day">16 </span><span class="month">April </span><span class="year">2026</span></div></div></div></div></div> Thu, 16 Apr 2026 20:43:05 +0000 webfull 217695 at /channels Seeking Candidates for Tenure-Track Appointment in Human Development /channels/channels/news/seeking-candidates-tenure-track-appointment-human-development-372609 <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>The <a href="/education/about-us/educational-counselling-psychology-ecp" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology (ECP)</a> invites applications for one tenure-track appointment in <a href="/edu-ecp/programs/humandev" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Human Development (HD) Program</a> at the rank of Assistant Professor. </p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-primary-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img class="no-float" src="/channels/files/channels/styles/wysiwyg_medium/public/channels/image/istock-1034315254.jpg?itok=Xz7Jf248" width="160" height="107" alt="" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-published-date field-type-datestamp field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><div class="custom-multi-date"><div class="multi-date first"><span class="label">Published: </span><span class="day">16 </span><span class="month">April </span><span class="year">2026</span></div></div></div></div></div> Thu, 16 Apr 2026 19:20:19 +0000 webfull 217694 at /channels Ask a librarian: Bestsellers /channels/channels/news/ask-librarian-bestsellers-372542 <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>Looking for your next read? Ask a librarian! 📚 You might enjoy some of these bestsellers favourites, and popular books in our physical and digital collection.
