Information is selected in both print and electronic forms.
Books and magazines are selected to provide current information and a range of ideas. Many campuses supplement their collection and service to students through cooperative agreements with other local libraries or through Interlibrary Loan. Subscription databases offer immediate access to full text articles in over 2,500 magazines as well as back copies from as far back as the 1980's. In addition, First Search enables searching for articles from over 12,500 journals through keyword searching of the index and table of contents and also provides links to over 105,000 web sites. Additional information on how to use each of these electronic resources is available at the LRC, along with account names and passwords.
