The document outlines an orientation for library resources given by Linda Hauck, Librarian. It discusses accessing subscription resources through the library homepage or Google Scholar, searching article databases and getting full text, and managing citations with tools like RefWorks, EndNote, Zotero, and Mendeley. Additional login credentials are needed for some business databases that track usage more closely. The orientation also covers becoming a proxy borrower, navigating the library homepage, refining searches, and taking advantage of search features to find relevant sources.
