New Book Shelf New additions to the collection are displayed on the New Book Shelf so that Triton students and staff may have the first opportunity to check out these books. Periodicals Triton currently subscribe to approximately 475 periodicals which include magazines, journals and newspapers. The current issues are displayed in red binders in the northeast section of the main floor on the Learning Resource Center. Back issues are house in a closed stack area. A list of our titles and a union list of the holdings of local libraries are kept at the Periodicals and Reference desks.
Reference librarians can help students determine the availability of specific titles.
Indexes to Articles Students have several options when looking for articles on a particular subject. Print indexes such as the Readers' Guide to Periodical Literature or Psychological Abstracts are available on the Index Tables. Many Students prefer to use the many electronic indexes which are available at Triton through various formats including CD-Rom, Illinet Online and the Internet. Reserve Collection Faculty often place materials on reserve for student use. They usually are limited to room use only, but some may be checked out for a shortened loan period.
