LIB-495 Questions - Starting Feb

[Tlm]

I start in the Capstone in February and and trying to wrap my head around it before it starts.  

Can someone share their class calendar? I have seen the syllabus but am curious about time lines.  

Also topics?  With a BALS can it really be anything? 

Is the textbook a rental or do you have access to it once the class starts?

Thanks!
