Library Displays:

St. Patrick's Day  is the occasion that inspired a small display of library materials about Ireland and the Irish.  Check out the "Out of Ireland" display next to the new books. 

Celebrating Women's History Month allowed us the chance to share some of the resources we have with a specific fous on women. 

"Danger! Danger! Will Robinson!"  We have asssembled a group of materials that explore technologies old and new (with the help of the Robot from Lost in Space) to promote Technology Week.  Some of the proposed technologies of the not so distant past may suprise you!

March is National Nutrition Month.  Be sure to stop by and pick up some of the resources related to nutrition and health on display near the periodicals.

Remember that all of the materials on display can be checked out.

Tip of the Week:

Most of the databases allow you to send yourself a citation (in addition to the full-text article) via e-mail.  Be sure to check with your professor (the final arbiter of all matters of style) to see which format you are using: APA, MLA, Turabian, or Turabian.
