Changes are coming soon to PubMed!  Here’s what you need to know:

• The look and features are updated.
• You should be able to do the same essential things — sort and filter results, etc.
• Be sure to open PubMed from the library website to access our full-text subscriptions.
• Our NUNM Full Text icon has a new look. It leads to full text, or the option to request full text from another library (Interlibrary Loan).

Try it now.  You might need to clear your cache to see the new PubMed. Here is a handy guide from Lifewire on how to clear your cache.

The library will be holding two citation manager workshops to help you get started on the right foot!

• Need help downloading a citation manager?
• Not sure how to save articles to your citation manager?
• How do you make a bibliography?
• What the heck is a citation manager?!

If you’ve had any of these questions (or any other questions about citation managers), please drop by the library during one of these workshops:

Tuesday, Sept. 24: 12-1 PM

Thursday, Sept. 26: 12-1 PM

Can make it to one of these sessions? Please email Leah at lburch@nunm.edu to schedule a one-on-one appointment.

Our summer remodel is complete!

During the July beak, your intrepid librarians shifted the entire collection and sorted a portion of it onto carts to be relocated. Once the summer term started, the compact shelving was removed and transported to another room in the Academic Building.

This created an open area in the back room that we soon filled with new benches, carrels, and tables. We also have new paint, new lighting, and a lot of new plants.

The book collection in the stacks has been condensed, but your old standbys are still there—our priority was to keep high-demand items and key subject areas available in the way you’re used to. Updated call number signs on the ends of the shelves will guide you to the materials.

We hope you enjoy the open, airy feeling and the extra study space. Please let us know what you think.

For the next two weeks, the library will follow special hours until the new term starts:

We will be closed for three Saturdays—August 31, September 7, and September 14—and for Labor Day. During the week, we’ll be open 9am – 5pm for September 3 – 6 and September 9 – 13. Normal hours will resume on September 16.

Hope you get to enjoy these dog days of summer!

During the July beak, your intrepid librarians shifted the entire collection and sorted a portion of it onto carts to be relocated. Once the summer term started, the compact shelving was removed and transported to another room in the Academic Building (more on that later), creating an open area that will soon become student study space. The remaining shelving was standardized in color—strategic swaps with the compact shelving helped a lot—and new end panels were installed. Painting went quickly, and you can get a sense of the color scheme in the photo gallery below.

Next up, new and better lighting fixtures. Lighting installation is taking a bit longer than originally planned, so we have updated the project calendar in the central hallway to help you visualize the schedule. Please be aware that during the lighting phase of the project, the shelves are wrapped for protection, so we cannot access materials in the stacks.

While the back room is closed, we have a special Remodel Redirect (PDF) flyer to help you find library materials or places to study. If you need a printed copy to take with you, you’ll find them near the crosswords at the circulation desk.
