Baycrest Psychologists receive numerous requests for speaking engagements, interviews, and educational support on issues relating to cognition, memory loss, and dementia. To expand our means of sharing our knowledge, we developed a website that provides information on the topic of memory and aging (what's normal, various types of cognitive disorders, and how to cope with memory loss and dementia). The link to the website is below. The site is updated periodically with new information gained through the work being done in Psychology. We hope you find it a useful resource for educating clients, family members, and staff.

Genamics JournalSeek
Genamics JournalSeek might be a good replacement for JAKE, as well as a place for students and faculty to look when considering where to publish.
http://journalseek.net/
From the website: "Genamics JournalSeek is the largest completely categorized database of freely available journal information available on the internet. The database presently contains 94715 titles. Journal information includes the description (aims and scope), journal abbreviation, journal homepage link, subject category and ISSN.
Searching this information allows the rapid identification of potential journals to publish your research in, as well as allow you to find new journals of interest to your field."
You can browse by category or search. I tried a few abbreviations and retrieved the title of the journal I needed.

Pet Policy
Re: Gerstein's pet policy.
Just for clarification, all staff should be aware that our policy is no pets, except 'seeing eye dogs' for those with visual disabilities. This is as per the University's policy as stated at: http://www.fs.utoronto.ca/aboutus/policies/fire.htm (scroll down to the section on pets)
"PETS other than seeing eye dogs are NOT permitted in any University buildings. Exceptions must have written permission from the Dean or Chair responsible for the area, and the owner will be responsible for clean-up, damage and liability."

New Old printer
There is a new old printer at the Information desk! No more jamming, freezing, etc. (hopefully).
It's the Lexmark 520 that previously lived on the 2nd floor with the RRUnit.
Enjoy!
