Welcome to the Chabot Library Read!
Good weekend! This is the first posting of the blog of the Chabot College Library.
We have big news coming up with changes to our web site!
The databases page will soon have a new look! We are splitting up our long list of databases to different pages so that you can select and choose your database quicker. To get a preview go to the New Databases Web Page
Also new, the Library now has a quality Google search engine to public world wide web sites selected by Chabot Librarians. When you have finished searching for books and articles, search the new search engine to find quality information on the public World Wide Web. Clicking on journals will lead you to free, peer-reviewed articles. To get to the search engine, start at the home page and click on Online Search Engines . The search engine is there on the top right. Enter your search terms and click on "Search."
Two databases will soon have new looks that may begin appearing over the summer. Tutorials on the new Lexis-Nexis are already available. Click on the menu on the top right to engage in three tutorials on how to use the future product. Get a feel for the new search enhancements! Later in the summer, there will also be a new look for Literature Resource Center. When available, we will announce when both have the new looks!
Stay tuned for more changes and improvements including more online tutorials on how to use the Library and search particular databases.
If you have any questions--as always you can contact a librarian on the left side of the main desk of the reference room, by phone at (510)723-7006, and by Email. We wish everyone a good final two weeks of the semester!
