Things To Know
- The Science Library is located on the first floor of Thad Cochran Research Center (take a left after entering main entrance, on your right). If you want a quiet space to work, this is a good option. The main J.D. Williams Library is located across from the Lyceum.
- UM Libraries' resources are authenticated on UM affiliation. If you are a student, you must be enrolled in credit hours to access content.
- Never pay for access to a journal article. If the UM Libraries does not have access to an item, request that item through our free interlibrary loan (ILL) service. The login information for your ILL account is the same as your UM id / password. The first time you log into your ILL account, you will be asked to complete a form (contact information, preferred pickup location for books, etc.)
- Librarians available via chat. This service can be good for getting quick answers related to library policies, confirming if a resource is not working for everyone, locating an article or book, etc.
- If you use Google Scholar, configure your account to recognize you as a University of Mississippi affiliate. Google Scholar menu --> Settings --> Library Links --> Type University of Mississippi
