library updates

Peoples Library on the University’s
New Castle campus has updated its
databases and resources to bring
more information opportunities to
students.
Updates to the library include new print and
eBooks, access to LexisNexis (for legal studies
students), and multiple new databases for
academic reference research.
The library continues to add to a growing
journal and eBook collection of more than
85,000 titles covering many topics, including
nursing, medicine, technology, computer
science, health and fitness, education, business,
political science and psychology.
To accommodate these new technologies,
resources and platforms as they emerge, the
library regularly creates new services to help
students and faculty access needed resources
efficiently. Today, many of the library’s online
resources can be accessed through the
students’ laptop, tablet or smartphone.
“The goal of the library will remain: give
students the knowledge and skills necessary
to pursue their dreams, including entering a
profession upon graduation. We in the library
are commi ed to helping students in this pursuit
and doing what it takes to help them learn,” said
JimMcCloskey, Library Director.
