Thomson Tour and Happy Hour

Join the St. Kate's SLA student group for a tour of Thomson libraries in Eagan. St. Kate's MLIS students are invited to tour the corporate library, the law library and the book manufacturing plant. It's not often that you get a chance to see inside a corporate library, but the Thomson librarians were kind enough to agree to stay late and keep the libraries open for us. They'll give us a tour and answer questions.

After the tour, we'll all meet over at Jake's City Grille for happy hour and some casual networking. If you can't make it to the tour, feel free to meet us at Jake's.

Watch out for construction on Highway 149 in Eagan when traveling to Thomson. It's OK - just follow the clearly marked orange "Thomson/West Detour" signs. When arriving at Thomson, drive towards the flag poles and park in Visitor Parking. Come to the front entrance and check in at the security desk. Someone will be there to escort you up to the library. Please arrive promptly by 5:45 pm to be ready for the 6:00 tour.

Here's a link to a GoogleMap between Thomson & Jake's that includes the alternate construction route: alternate route.

It'll be fun and we hope to see you there! Contact Margaret Ostrander at 651-848-8552 or margaret.ostrander@thomson.com with questions. No RSVP needed.
