Updates will be posted as they become available at Engineering Library News.
During the closure the Library’s print collections will be unavailable for borrowing.
Finding resources you need during the closure:
- All online journals, books, reference sources, etc., will be available as usual. Use OskiCat and Electronic Journals A-Z to find resources you need.
- For print materials held at other campus libraries, continue to pick them up at the other libraries and check them out there.
- For print materials held at NRLF, log on to OskiCat and request them as you currently do. Articles will be scanned and posted to you via email; books will be sent to another campus library that you select for pick up.
