Welcome back everyone. We are excited to be starting the semester up again and hope you are too. This semester we are looking forward to a number of new exciting changes in the library. Read all about them here!
New Multimedia Computer Cluster (MCC)
The MCC will be made up of four computers, a dedicated color printer, and Adobe Design Premium Software (CS5). We hope students can create competitive, eye catching, and creative projects while gaining skills and exposure to programs that are transferable to many jobs in the private and public sectors. We hope this project will extend and expand learning for students, faculty and staff by providing them with a dedicated productivity center in the library to maximize their efforts in producing print media and web projects.
CREDO Reference: Topic Pages
One of our most popular databases is getting a makeover. CREDO reference is a go to database that will get you reference articles from all kinds of materials such as encyclopedias. Well now it's getting even better with the addition of over 9000 Topic pages which will provide you not only with the encyclopedia entries, but also with articles from our databases like EbscoHost, along with images and also books from our catalog. Think about it... a one stop shop for all your research needs! Take a look at the picture to the right: Those categories will work for almost any class you have (business, history, literature, law enforcement, geography, nutrition, health and more). You can find Credo under "Find Articles" on our webpage.
We hope to see lots of you around this semester checking out our materials or just enjoying the comfy couches.
