The Library Helps with Student Registration

Library staff helping students register
Prepared by Andrew Lopez

Everyone knows that student Registration has been confusing and frustrating at Delgado this summer. The college recently implemented a new registration system, LOLA, and unfortunately many of the kinks are still being played out in the form of students having to spend hours waiting in line or on the telephone. Some of this frustration has even presented itself on the college's Facebook page.

The things they carried
In order to help relieve some of the stress caused by this situation, and in the interest of helping students complete their registration, the Library has volunteered almost full-time support for weeks on end. Library staff have undergone training with the LOLA system so as to be able to provide student assistance navigating the new system.

In the process of helping students register, and we are often helping dozens of students at a time, it has become clear that many students need help finding services scattered around the City Park campus. That's where the Library's City Park campus map with student services listed by building has proven invaluable.

If you know of anyone who still needs help with Registration, please send them to:

  • City Park, Building 2, Room 206, 9am--3pm 
  • West Bank, Building 2, Room 126, 9am--3pm
Library staff will be helping with Registration everyday (M-F) through next week (8/10).
