Take Advantage of Ariel by Odalia Taveras Ariel
is a system that electronically delivers requested articles from other
libraries. Faculty and students are really
impressed with this
system’s efficiency.
No need to ignore articles with out full text accessibility --- Request
an article today and it could be here tomorrow! *
Not all colleges use the Ariel system so we cannot guarantee quick
delivery on all article requests. Ariel does not apply to book requests,
so please allow the standard 5-10 days for book delivery. * Interlibrary loans can be made by filling out an application at the library, or via email: interlibraryloan@mountsaintvincent.edu NetLibrary...at your computer soon!

NetLibrary
is a new collection of electronic books that will
soon be accessible from the
Elizabeth Seton Library’s online catalog. Anyone
within the College community will
be able to read these
books directly
from their
computer screen! These
electronic books will be accessible for a specified amount of time.
The Elizabeth Seton Library staff will be holding NetLibrary training for faculty and students shortly . We will be emailing specific information about the time and location. Professors: Are your articles on reserve 24/7?
by Martha Kruy Instructors:
supply us with a
scanned format of the required reading for your courses, and we
will place them in our
electronic reserve
system. Your
assigned reading will be accessible from a course folder we
create for your specific class. If you don’t have a
scanned format, supply
us with a print
copy and we will scan
it for you. If you are interested in learning, we will teach you
how to create your own
electronic-formatted documents. We
will also accept hyperlinks to electronically published articles in our
databases or hyperlinks
from the free Internet and place those links
in your e-reserves
course environment.
As an additional service, we can also help you create links to
information in our databases and upload articles for your Blackboard
courses. Please call or email Odalia Taveras at extension 3394 or odalia.taveras@mountsaintvincent.edu for more information or create an e-reserves account for your class. |
