From fiction writing to magazine writing, digital communication to scientific journals, you’ll find it here.

Writing Services, McLaughlin Library Contents: 3 Thursday Morning Sessions 8 Thursday Afternoon Sessions 11 Friday Morning Sessions 15 Friday Afternoon Sessions 20 Thursday Schedule - Day 1 21 Friday Schedule - Day 2 22 Library 3rd Floor Map Thanks to our sponsors Thursday February 19, 2015 THE COUNTERINTUITIVE WRITER: HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR WRITING BY DOING THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU’VE PROBABLY BEEN TAUGHT Thursday, 9:00am – 10:30am, LIB 300A | Joan Flaherty This workshop is intended for anyone who falls into one of these categories: • Hate writing • Love writing • Hate writing, but love having written* In other words, it’s aimed at a broad audience whose writing skills may vary considerably. The only conditions for registering in this session are a desire to improve your writing and, as the session title suggests, an openness to trying new approaches. In pursuit of those goals, the workshop will cover three main areas: how to get started – including how to deal with writer’s block; how to organize your thoughts quickly; and how to know whether or not you’ve done a good job. The format will be a combination of mini lecture, discussion, and individual exercises. *Dorothy Parker JOAN FLAHERTY ___________________________________ teaches communications in the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management at the University Guelph.

  • Lake Ontario
    Lake Ontario For the hydrocarbon lake on Titan, see Ontario Lacus. Lake Ontario (French: Lac Ontario) is one of the five Great Lakes of North America. It is bounded on the north, west, and southwest by the Canadian province of Ontario, and on the south and east by the American state of New York. Ontario, Canada’s most populous province, was named for the lake. In the Wyandot (Huron) lan- guage, ontarío means “Lake of Shining Waters”. It is the last in the Great Lakes chain and serves as the outlet to the Atlantic Ocean via the St. Lawrence River. Lake On- tario is also the only one of the five Great Lakes not to share a shoreline with the American state of Michigan.

  • The Environmental Bill of Rights Your Environment, Your Rights 2 Commissioner’S Message
    The Environmental Bill of Rights YOUR ENVIRONMENT, YOUR RIGHTS 2 Commissioner’s Message In February 1994, Ontarians got a ground-breaking new law: the Environmental Bill of Rights, 1993 (EBR). The EBR affirms that Ontario residents have a right to know about — and have a say in — decisions that affect the environment. The law also created a set of tools to provide public participation, transparency and accountability in the government’s decision-making process. These tools include applications for review and investigation, the Environmental Registry, and the position of the Environmental Commissioner of Ontario. For more than 20 years, Ontarians have been able to use the EBR and its tools as a catalyst for important new environmental laws and policies. During my appointment as Commissioner, I have been privileged to see an ongoing dialogue unfold between the public and the government ministries entrusted with the stewardship of our common natural environment. Thousands of people use the Environmental Registry each year to comment on government initiatives, ranging from technical compliance rules to sweeping policies on land use. Communities and individuals have also had input into site-specific permits and licences, commenting on concerns such as local air and water quality, habitat protection, and noise. Ontarians have also used EBR applications and appeals to convince the government to overhaul legislation, change approvals, and bring in new environmental protections. We, as Ontarians, can be proud and celebrate how the EBR has contributed to improved environmental protection and conservation in our province. I urge all Ontarians to exercise their EBR rights, and to keep exploring new avenues towards protecting, conserving and restoring our natural environment.
