Help Us Help You--Document Delivery Tips

We are happy to order items from other libraries for you (books and articles), but we need your help to successfully locate and obtain materials for you. Here is a list of tips--
1) We need a week to obtain items. Some items may take longer, but most take about a week. Please check the Metroversity and public library catalogs if you need items sooner as you can take your Spalding id and go to any Metroversity library to use/checkout items.
2) Click on the ILL request button in the article databases and fill in your contact information. Unless you tell us otherwise we operate using e-mail.
3) If you do have to use the form for document delivery for books or articles not on a database, be sure to fill in all information areas and use exact information (e.g., journal titles, article titles, vol., and page numbers).
4) We only order 10 items at a time so we can better keep track of materials.
5) Please be sure to return items (books) on time so that your borrowing priviliges can continue.
6) We can order dissertations for you, but you must pay for them ($30.00).
Thank you!

Student Workshop Survey--Thanks for Responding

Thanks to all of you who responded to our survey on library workshops. The results indicated that database searching and citation are the topics most needed by students. We hope to offer workshops on these two topics in the fall, one in session 1 in the evening and the other in session 2 on a Saturday afternoon. More details will follow so watch the website and blog for more information.
