A separate newsletter is planned for students. Changes to Our Web Site Sawyer staff have redesigned the Library s web pages this summer in an effort to increase the pages information content and to improve functionality and usefulness. For example, the use of frames have been discontinued and replaced with simple yet effective navigation buttons. In many instances, information about the Sawyer Library and its services will be published through the web pages rather than on paper to save resources and reduce costs. The Library has begun to emphasize access to information and information resources through the web.
Many students find a university library intimidating and confusing.
As a result, faculty may find that students are unable to conduct successful library research. In addition to these tours, staff have prepared a number of guides to assist with research in a variety of subjects. These guides are available in the Library as handouts, and also through the Library s web pages. To request Library Instruction sessions or to request the development of a new guide, please call extension 8532 or stop by the Reference Desk. More databases will be added in the very near future.
