Today we had some information on how to use the library resources.

From the computers of the library or the labs you can access http://ultranet/ for the main page.

Otherwise you can go in www.acg.edu and click on "Sign in" and click Sign-in to acgLIBLINE use your pin and log in the databases~

How to
----------

Find a Book in the Library:
1- Press "Catalogue" from the library's main page
2- Press "Main Catalogue"
3- Enter a keyword about the subject you are looking for (use the drop-down box to choose if it is a general keyword, author or title)
4- A list of books will appear, click one you are interested in.
5- Under the blue line "Copy/Holding Information" you see how many prints of the specific books are in the libraries. The Call Id locates the book in the shelves, ask for help from the librarian if needed.

Note: Deree College Library = Agia Paraskevi Library
You can limit your search results in Downtown Library in the page with the books by pressing "Limit by:" and choosing "Downtown Library".
-----------

Find a journal:

1. Press E-Resources
2. Press Journals A-Z
3. Enter the title of the subject you wish to find or the title of the journal and you'll get a list of them.

----------

Find an article:

1. Press E-Resources
2. Press "Online Indexes and Databases"

The ones we'll use mostly are the Academic Search Elite and SIRS Researcher from the list.

For Academic Search Elite, click the top button and then click on Academic Search Elite (kinda repeating itself).
Write in the "Find" box what you need to find and tick the "Full Text" box below so you can find a full article and not only author name and the title of the article.

For SIRS Researcher you click on the subject that interests you in the list and then choose the type of resource you need ("Newspapers" "Magazines" etc)

--------

That's all folks.
