New Resource Trials Month at Murphy Library

Posted 8:17 p.m. Monday, Nov. 10, 2014

Test drive some library resources and help the library decide if it should add them.

It is time for Murphy Library's November Trials Month, which goes from November 1 - 30, 2014. Trials will end on November 30. During trials month, all members of the campus community are asked to help the library evaluate information resources that are being considered as potential additions to the library's collections.Through interactions with faculty, students, librarians, and vendors, these resources have been identified as meeting the needs of the campus.However, before making the final decision, we want these resources to be used and tested at UW-L as much as possible, Please use the products below as much as possible during trials month and use the Evaluation Form to let the library know what you think. You can also go directly to the listing of trials at the library's E-Resource Trials page.
