Some Useful Resources at URI

Following are some things to do to be prepared for this course:

1. Get your URI email account.

TheURI Information Technology Services (ITS) provides Internet support for electronic mail, the Web, mailing list LISTSERV, news server, Web publishing, etc. to URI faculty, staff, and registered students.

2. Join GSLIS student listserv.

If you haven't joined the GSLIS listserv, you should. This is the primary source for information valuable to all GSLIS students, whether you are matriculated or not.

3. If you access the the Internet from an Internet Service Provider other than URI you must use the HELIN Proxy Server for full access to available databases. You will be prompted for your name and library barcode.
