Congratulations to our graduating students!

We know it's a busy time of year as you prepare to graduate and go on your way as brand new doctors, dentists, and other health sciences professionals, but as you go on your journey and prepare to leave Tufts and go off into the world, there are a few things to keep in mind:

  1. Return your books! You will not be able to graduate if you owe us anything, so even if you can't remember if you having something checked out, it never hurts to double-check! We have probably sent you a few emails already if you do owe us something, and if this is the case please come talk to us. We want to help you graduate!
  2. Dental students specifically: before graduating, you must clear from the library. What does this mean? You've most likely received some notice from the dental school about this, but essentially you must email us (hhslcirc@tufts.edu) and cc the Dental Clearance office (dentalclearance@tufts.edu) requesting that we clear you for graduation. We will respond to you in a timely manner, and then you will be all set to graduate! 

So stop by the library desk or send us an email if you have any questions! And to all those who have already cleared and are all set: congrats on graduation! We at the library wish you the best of luck as you go on to the next phase of your careers!
