Ask at the desk for help with using the library catalog, electronic indexes and other reference materials or to request materials help by other libraries. Reference books do not circulate. Here you will also find computer databases, internet access, and access to the online library catalog. Some are general, covering a wide variety of topics, while others are subject specific. Paper indexes and abstracts are located on shelves southeast of the Reference Desk.
Most periodical indexes are now available as electronic databases.
Most of these electronic databases are available anywhere on campus. CD-ROM databases are located in the computer cluster near the Reference Desk. On the west end of the main floor opposite the reference desk is the periodical collection. Periodicals do not circulate. Please read our Periodicals Circulation Policy .
