Getting Started
 Can anyone
show me around the library?
How do I get
a library card?
What are the
Library’s hours?
Can I use my
laptop computer in the Library?
Getting Help
Is there
someone I can talk to for help?
Do you have
any handouts on how to use the Library?
I wish there
was a class I could take that would make me more confident in how to do research.
Finding a Book
Where’s
the catalog?
How long can
I keep a book out? Can I renew it?
How can I
get a book someone else has checked out?
What if the
book I need is at another HELIN library?
What if I
really need a book and it’s not in HELIN?
Finding an Article
What
periodical indexes are available online? How do I use them?
Can I get
into these databases from home / off-campus?
How do I
know if the Library subscribes to the journal I need?
Can I get
journal articles online?
What if I
need an article that’s not available at URI?
Finding Other
Materials
My professor
put some reading on Reserve in the Library. How do I get it?
Does the library have DVDs, video tapes, and CDs?
I have to work on a group project with some of my
classmates? Is there a place we can meet?
