There are two student computer labs on campus. One is located on the ground floor of the library and the other on the ground floor of the Kirk Center. The student computer lab in the library observes the same open hours as the library. Over 60 different databases in various subject areas are available through a library Internet service called FirstSearch. Database searches generally provide you with a bibliography of citations and abstracts for journal articles and books on specific topics.
Some databases provide entire journal articles.
FirstSearch databases can be accessed wherever there is Internet access. Please consult the reference librarian for help accessing the various databases or ask for the FirstSearch handout for logon information. As you do research, you may find references to materials that the library does not own. Full bibliographic and source information is needed to make an ILL request. Allow a week to 10 days for receipt of material.
