Whats New? LibGuides!

We are excited to announce an update to Ashland University Library's LibGuide information portal and Electronic Reserves. LibGuides - or Library Guides - feature the same great library research help, course support, and information; same easy access to electronic reserves; all with an updated design and increased functionality for users.

Accessing Library guides is easy; from the AU Library home page select the Research Guide link directly below OneSearch or the Library Help quick links. Electronic Reserves, or E-Res, are accessible from the library home page via the Reserves link on the left side bar. It is also possible to find E-Reserves directly from the LibGuides home page. We will be sharing more about our LibGuides update and resources available in the coming weeks.

Special thanks to Chad Draper and Joe Ellis in Web Services for their exceptional work customizing LibGuides, it functions seamlessly with the AU Library site.  We also would like to thank Kris Kennedy in marketing for his work on a new AU Library banner and Mark Usher in Information Technology for key updates to the site URL making it possible to 'go live' with LibGuides v2.
