COS/CHST LIBRARY LIAISON NEWSLETTER

Welcome Back!!

I hope you had a pleasant summer.

Did you know that you can email pages to yourself from a library copier at no charge!!? Instructions for emailing yourself copied pages are posted near the copiers. The library staff will be available to assist you.

To find out more about the Wallace Library , visit the library's webpage which provides a Library Services guide as well as tutorials.

Database Updates:

Scifinder is now web based and only available at the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) website via the library's databases webpage. New users will have to create their own Scifinder username and password before accessing the web based database. The pc/mac version of the Scifinder database is no longer supported by CAS, therefore if you have been having technical issues switch to the web version.

Reminders for Graduate Students and Faculty:

Rochester Regional Library Council (RRLC ) access card is available for graduate students and faculty only. This card allows you to use materials at other area libraries. RRLC provides a limited number of access cards. You will need to contact me directly to obtain a RRLC access card.

The Scholarly Publishing Studio offers copy editors to edit your abstracts, articles, presentations, and grant proposals at a reasonable cost with a minimum turnaround time of two business days .

Bookmark this quarterly web newsletter, which will provide you updates on how to use the library resources to make your work easier, including library events and workshops e.g. Endnote, Chemistry databases.

I look forward to providing assistance to you in your classrooms and laboratories.
