Dear Navigation Nation,

• Remote access to over 119 databases.
• Streaming resources like AVON, Films on Demand, Swank, Kanopy, and OverDrive.
• Research Guides, which provide excellent starting points for research.
• How-to-Videos to help users navigate and search the Library’s resources.
• The Ask-a-Librarian chat service to answer research and technology questions 24/7.
• Research Help by directly contacting librarians who can meet with you virtually and via phone.
• Virtual workshops on a variety of research topics.
• Physical materials accessible via the Book Request Service.
• Contactless return of books via book returns.
• Mobile hotspot and calculator loans by appointment.

Again, we are here for you and want to be part of making your Spring semester productive and successful!
