"LibX has made it easier to access various sources on the
UConn Library site and also makes it SO much easier to access
articles when I am not on campus!"
"It makes you feel you are always connected to our
excellent library resources and staff!"
"It has made it easier because instead clicking through
multiple pages I can simply click on the toolbar and ask for
help no problem."
