Don't Have It?

I know lots of you are in the middle of research papers right now.  What do you do if we don't have a book on your topic in our library?  You've got several options:

--Make sure you search for different subjects relating to your topic.  We may not have a book specifically about Julius Caesar, but we might have books on Rome during his time that would still have important information.

--Go to the databases!  Click on the "RESEARCH" tab, and you'll find a link to the databases.  This will help you find newspaper articles, magazine articles, and information from reference books that we don't have here.

--Visit the public library!  They have many more books than we do.  I've put links to their websites on the "RESEARCH" tab.  Sometimes if they don't have a book you're looking for, they can request them to be mailed from another library. 

--Ask me for help!  That's what I'm here for!

I hope you all had a fantastic break, and are ready to get back to work!  Don't forget that the library is here to help with all your information needs...searching databases for research, reading books for pleasure, citing your sources, and anything else you need to know.  Come by and visit, I want to help!
