New and Trial databases! We need your feedback!

Check out the New databases! Credo General Reference database includes full-text, aggregated content from hundreds of reference books covering every major subject. It's great for those online students who might need information from an encyclopedia.

We also have access to a great news source called Access World News. This provides 3,900+ sources of news from the U.S. and around the world. We will have access to this database as a trial until December 21st, 2009. It is a trial so please let us know if you like it.

We need your feedback!

The library will be open on Sunday

The library will be open regular hours on Sunday, April 12th.

cell phones in the library

Please set your cell phone to vibrate when you're in the library. It's very disruptive to hear your cell's ringer going off. This is especially true in the quiet area of the library. Please be considerate of those of you around you.
