Reminder: Please use the garbage cans

Library staff are glad to see students using our resources and facilities during the final stretch of the semester. We want to take a moment to remind you to throw your garbage in the receptacles located all over the library. There should never be a reason to leave your garbage on the tables, chairs, or floor. Please respect everyone who has to work in the library by helping us keep the library clean.

Citation Station!

Have your whole conference paper done, except the bibliography? You're not alone! Reference staff will be manning Citation Station every day from 11am to 1pm in the Reference office just behind the information desk. Armed with our MLA handbooks, APA style guides, and Chicago manuals, we're here to help solve citation conundrums. Bring us your confounding web sources, your indeterminate issue and volume numbers, and your questions about what counts as plagiarism. We are here to help!

RefWorks for Worksheets!

Overwhelmed by the prospect of submitting worksheets for your classes? RefWorks to the rescue! Remember that RefWorks can store and organize all your citations, including references for things you might not normally include in a bibliography but would want to include in a worksheet (e.g., lectures attended, museums visited, etc.).

You can access RefWorks by clicking the link located on the left side of the library homepage. If you'd like to use RefWorks off campus, contact the reference staff at x2225 for the Group Code. For help using RefWorks, stop by the reference office, call us, or email us with what's troubling you at reference@slc.edu.
