Did you know?  We have access to resources and articles that you just can’t get from random online searching.  For one thing, there are these expensive things called subscriptions. Foley Library has a lot of them and since your tuition helps pay the bill, why not use them?

We want all of our students (and faculty and staff!) to be aware of the many resources available online at Foley.  For starters:

  1. Our library catalog is online and you can place holds or renew books without ever coming in to the building.
  2. Foley library has over 100 online article databases – many with full text articles!
  3. Periodicals @ Foley is the gateway to all our journal subscriptions, both online and in print. The link to this great resource is under the Find Articles section of the Foley home page.  In our databases, look for the Full Text Options link – it will take you directly to Periodicals @ Foley.
  4. Research Guides are provided for your convenience, to direct you to the best resources for your field of study. If you don’t know where to start, a Research Guide can help you.
  5. Even the librarians are online! Chat online with a librarian during library hours by using the Meebo link at the bottom of our webpage. After hours or anytime, use the “24/7 Chat with a Librarian” service. You’ll find that link at the top of the list on the right side of the library homepage.

Like I said, those are just for starters.  Contact the library for more information or for help using any of these resources. (Hint: See the Contact Us link on the home page!)

Happy searching!
