Library Renovations

If you haven’t visited Bibby Library lately, you might be surprised by the changes. We recently installed new carpeting and a service desk and purchased new chairs for the computer workstations. In addition, we now have a security system to help prevent the loss of books and journals. Books are deactivated on checkout, so if an alarm sounds when leaving, please stop by the service desk to make sure they have been properly checked out. Special thanks to Dr. Meyerowitz, Tom Venner, and Johnson Controls for their support and assistance in updating the library’s facilities. We hope you will stop by and take a look!

Bibby Library "Housecalls"

The Bibby Library invites you to participate in the newest component of our digital literacy program, Housecalls – a brief visit to your workspace to make the Digital Library work harder for you. Housecalls is a collaborative program with Miner Library. During a Housecall, the librarian can:

  • Provide an overview/personal tour of the Digital Library
  • Show you how to determine if we have a particular citation or journal on-line
  • Identify resources best suited for your research or patient care
  • Give you an overview of resources and databases of your choosing

Call Pam White in the Bibby Library at 275-3247 to arrange a time for us to come to you!

Computer Update

• Ways to Save: The library computers are equipped with floppy drives, zip drives, and USB drives, thus providing several options for saving your work. Disks may be purchased at the computer store on the lower level of the Medical Center. Please note: it is possible to save to the desktop, but due to routine maintenance, we can't guarantee that your files will be there when you return.

• Scanner: The library scanner is now fully operational. Instructions for using the scanner are attached to the workstation. Photoshop Elements is available on the attached computer for more complex editing functions. If you need help using the scanner, please see a library staff member for assistance.

Welcome New Residents!

Pam, Beth, and the student assistants would like to extend a warm welcome to all of Dentistry's newest residents. We are here to help you with all of your information needs. Please feel free to approach any of our staff for reference assistance, or for instruction in using the library's resources.

Student Assistants

We are fortunate to have students on our staff who keep the library open on the evenings and weekends. We recently welcomed four new students to our staff: Rebecca Braun, Betty His Mei, Ann Miller, and Pranay Vaddi. These students, as well as Rachel and Elizabeth, will work through the summer and into the academic year. Students are trained in using the library’s resources and are ready to assist you with your information needs.

Dentistry Research

The bulletin board located outside the entrance to the library is continuing to showcase Dentistry’s research. If you have had a paper published recently, please contact us and we'll post it. Papers are rotated approximately every two months, so stop and take a look at what your colleagues have been doing lately.
