Question about "Baruch College for Dummies"

A student asked me if we had the book "Baruch College for Dummies." She told me it was on Baruchvoiceout, which I was unfamiliar with, so she showed me. The actual series of Dummies.com books are now part of Wiley, which I doubt knows of this localized version.

The students who set up the BaruchVoiceOut web site are just spoofing on the "For Dummies" series. If you go to the "Important Links" page in "Baruch for Dummies" and scroll down to "Newman Library," you'll find the following very interesting text:

Fortunately, we have such a great library, and services, that we can do a lot of things online! Like, speak to a librarian (seriously no joke, the librarian is sitting there chatting with you!). That is just one of the several services they offer, check it out!
