New Library Exhibit: What We Did During the Summer Vacation, 2008
Exciting things are happening at the Library and we want all our students, faculty and staff to know about it. That's why we have devoted our exhibit space to feature new initiatives of the Library.
New Catalog Interface Encore
It is with great excitement that we unveil our new beta version of our Library catalog. This new more user-friendly product, entitled Encore, allows for easier searching by format, by tags, by publication date and much more. Give it a whirl and let us know what you think!
