With help from our colleagues at the Consortium of Academic and Research Libraries in Illinois<\/a> (CARLI), we have completed our migration to the new Ames Library catalog<\/a>, I-Share catalog, and article databases, also known as \u201cMegaSearch.\u201d Launched on June 24th<\/sup> across the state, our new system provides enhanced searching, requesting, and delivery options for library users, and new tools for management of library resources for library faculty and staff.<\/p>\n

While requests for materials from other library collections, both through I-Share and interlibrary loan, remain limited owing to the impact of the coronavirus on library services<\/a> across the world, you can still use the new MegaSearch to discover and gain access to materials in the Ames Library collection (including curbside delivery<\/a>, beginning July 7th<\/sup>), and to access digital resources<\/a> including electronic journal articles, e-books, and streaming media. If you would like an introduction to the new system, please review this tutorial<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The migration to the new library catalog has been ongoing for over a year, and would not have been possible without the concerted efforts of library faculty and staff preparing materials, updating records, and trouble-shooting data and workflows. We look forward to introducing you and your students to the new system in the Fall. If you have any questions, please contact your liaison librarian<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
