The Reference Collection is located on the first floor of the Library. Items physically in the non-circulating collection provide basic information on a topic, or help identify sources for locating more detailed information.
Items providing basic information include dictionaries, encyclopedias, almanacs, handbooks, etc.
Items that locate more detailed information include indexes, bibliographies, subject guides, etc. The library also provides reference resources on WebROSI, the Web-based electronic information gateway. The electronic resources on WebROSI can be accessed from outside of the Library. However, because of contractual agreements, use of most electronic resources is limited to UNK students, faculty, and staff. Librarians are available to help you with the resources in the Reference Collection, or any other information source in the Library.
