Library has New Tutorial Videos for You and Your Students!

The Library has some new tutorial videos. One is on using the library catalog and the other on using Literature Resource Center. The scripts are on the second link. (You will need to click on "Download this Media" at the top of the page.)

  • Getting more relevant results when using the Library Catalog. By adding just a couple of steps, you can create a search that will provide more relevant results, saving you time and energy.

  • Literature Resource Center. One of our more popular databases when searching for biography or literary criticism on an author or work. Remember the library databases also include citations!
