  Trial Databases

RefWorks      UTA plus OffCampus Access.    Trial ends April 30, 2002.
RefWorks is an Internet-based bibliography and database manager that allows users to create their own personal database by importing references from text files or online databases. These references can be used in writing bibliographies for papers and automatically format the paper and the bibliography in seconds. Various writing styles are accommodated.

Class Syllabus:

Students need help in their library research for class assignments.  Where did I see the librarian's name that would help me, they ask?  That's right, on my professor's ONLINE SYLLABUS!!  Help us help your students understand the library resources, by including our name and contact information on your print or online class syllabus.
