Fourth Floor is now open

By cdrake, on May 30th, 2013

The new lights, ceiling, carpet, paint, and reupholstered chairs are now ready for use on the fourth floor. However, we are not finished. New study tables, study carrels, and new lounge furniture are on order. The group study room, 435, is also ready for use, but the individual study rooms aren’t ready just yet. So while we are not finished with all the details, you can use the space while we wait for the new furniture. We’ll keep you posted and let you know when we’ll need to close for the furniture installation.

Be sure you check out the new drinking fountain!

EndNote iPad App

By libsys, on April 26th, 2013

Thomson Reuters, the producers of the EndNote desktop application, recently announced the availability of an EndNote iPad app. The EndNote app works in conjunction with your EndNote Web account and your EndNote desktop library via EndNote Sync on current EndNote platforms.

The EndNote app is available via iTunes and is current on sale for only $0.99 until July 31st. The regular price is listed as $9.99.

The University Libraries will be reviewing the EndNote app and report on its capabilities reference/citation management.

Initial impressions are good as long as you link your EndNote desktop with EndNote Web. An update to your EndNote desktop maybe necessary to enable EndNote Sync. In Windows EndNote X6, an update was necessary to bring the software up to version X6.0.1. EndNote updates can be found under the “Help” menu and is called “EndNote Program Updates…” To connect your EndNote desktop application to EndNote Web, go to “Help” and click on “EndNote Web” then follow the instructions.

Problems Accessing Full-text Articles?

By libnews, on March 15th, 2013

Update 4-4-2013: The issue accessing Springerlink titles has been fixed.

It has come to our attention that there is a problem accessing full-text Springerlink journal articles from off-campus. The current problem with Springerlink titles occurs when you click on the “purple button”

from a database search. One solution you might try to get that article is, instead of clicking on the purple button, go to the library homepage (library.llu.edu) and click on Find Journals on the left vertical bar. Then, enter the title of the journal in the search box (you may enter official title abbreviations). Ensure the library carries the year you are looking for and then click on the Springerlink hypertext in the results list. You will have drill down to the article level using your citation information. Lastly, look for the PDF icon for the full text. The list of journal titles affected is quite extensive. Scroll to the bottom to see a small sample of Springerlink titles.

We apologize for your inconvenience and hope to resolve this issue quickly. If you ever experience difficulties in accessing the full-text of an article from a journal the library has, you can always call the library (909-558-4550), or email the reference librarians (libref@llu.edu).
