Library instruction goes online
We're pleased to introduce a new tool for online instruction being used at UNL Libraries: The Guide on the Side allows us to create authentic, interactive, accessible, and assessable online tools to help introduce your students to relevant research tools and materials. See the Guide in action, or contact me if you would like one created for your course.
Citation Management Tools
UNL Libraries supports and provides instruction on, and assistance with, the following citation management tools. Collect, organize, cite, and share your research. These are especially helpful for graduate students beginning their theses or dissertations. Contact me for more information!
