Welcome to the supporting guide for CISC 310: Introduction to Computer Information Science.

This guide highlights how library work is deeply technical and how computer science skills translate to library systems, cloud services, and information management careers.

In the Session/Guide

• See how libraries use cloud platforms and discovery systems like Alma/Primo (OneSearch).
• Discover tech career paths in libraries and with library vendors such as Clarivate/ExLibris, EBSCO, and Springshare.
• Get a quick overview of key ARC Library resources for your own coursework.

About Your Librarian

I focus on ARC Library projects involving cloud-based library systems (Alma/Primo), discovery services, and user-experience analytics, collaborating with Los Rios colleagues on shared initiatives.
My background includes formal coursework and hands-on work in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, accessibility design, and web content management systems—skills that align closely with computer information science.
