How's our new site?

As you've just discovered, the Patrick Power Library has a brand new web site!

This new site represents many months of planning and discussion aimed at providing the Saint Mary’s research community with easy and intuitive access to the Library’s increasingly diverse resources and services.

Along with the obvious visual changes to layout, colour and graphics, highlights include:
- an emphasis upon the book and journal article search functions which draw most visitors to the virtual library
- a box for quick keyword searches of the Novanet catalogue
- a choice of options for accessing our journal collections, including a box for a simultaneous keyword search of 7 of our largest and most popular databases
- a more prominent link to the latest in library news, linked to our blog
- an improved Contact Us page

Like any web site, this new one is not intended to be static. We will continue to look for ways to improve it in response to the feedback we receive from our users. So if you have any comments or suggestions (good or bad), please send them to me at ron.houlihan@smu.ca . In the meantime, we hope you will familiarize yourself with the new site and enjoy its benefits.

Current students! You're very lucky that searching for journal articles is now fully possible. Kudos to the library for correcting this issue as in the past I found myself constantly using a Dal students access to get my journals.
