Welcome Back! It's a New Decade!

And the semester is in full swing today. The Library is open and our current hours are available at: http://www.chabotcollege.edu/Library/abby/hours.html

Online Chat Reference

New services include our Online Chat Reference. Now on the Library home page and at the times indicated, you can get real time online reference from one of our librarians. Look at the third column and type in your question at the bottom of the box!

Searchpath 1.2 and Lots of Other Tutorials

The Library is proud to announce Searchpath 1.2, the new version of a six module tutorial that will teach you how to use both print and online resources effectively. Each module lasts from 15 to 45 minutes long, depending on the lesson.

In addition, we now have many new tutorials that will teach you how to log into databases from off campus, search the Library Catalog and EBSCOhost, effective tips on Emailing and printing articles from databases, and further tips on how you can become a savvy researcher on EBSCOhost. Please take a look at our tutorials, and then if you have any questions, as always, contact a librarian.

Stay tuned for more on more new services available just for you at the Library, and upcoming events!

Happy Searching!
