Below are some short (5-15 minute) videos walking you through some of the basic resources the University and Nielsen Library offer. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to your Faculty, or to the Library Liaison for your department: Amanda Langdon, ANLangdon@adams.edu or 719-587-7173.
Summer 2024 will see some significant changes to EBSCO, our primary Library Discovery platform. Once these changes have been fully implemented and understood by library staff, the following videos will be updated/re-recorded, but that process will take some time. Much of the information should remain the same; however, the pages and search options are going to look considerably different. If you need help navigating either the current or the new EBSCO interfaces, please reach out to Amanda Langdon (ANLangdon@adams.edu or 719-587-7173), or the Nielsen Library Reference Desk (LibReference@adams.edu or 719-587-7879), and we will help however possible.
