Reference webpage tutorials

In a previous blog entry, we reported that we had added a search toolbox to our reference webpage to make searching through the variety of resources a bit more user-friendly. We hope that you've had a chance to experiment with it. We're now working on adding some video tutorials on how to use some of the resources. If you're like the average person, seeing a demonstration is better than just reading about it. So, keep an eye on the reference webpage for these additions/updates. If there's anything else that you'd like to see there, let us know here. Until then, best of luck with your research projects.

New Navigation Toolbox on our Reference Page

In our ongoing efforts to make our Reference webpage more user-friendly, we've created a new navigation toolbox! This change will enable users to navigate to our various online resources, either by reference categories or by individual resources. When selecting any item in the toolbox's drop down boxes, the user is taken directly to the resource or resource category in question. Of course, subscription based resources will still prompt you for your patron barcode, but once logged in for that browsing session, you will be able to move between the various resources with ease. Tell us what you think!
