Minerva Has a New Look!

The University Libraries are pleased to announce that the Minerva catalog has been redesigned with a simpler interface. Some of the new features include:

* Browse Search and Keyword Search boxes have been collapsed into one search box.

* Frequently used Search Options "Full Catalog," "Journals," "Reserves," "Gov't. Docs," have been placed in handy tabs in the middle of the page.

* An additional tab "Journal Articles" directs users to the Database Finder and gives further instruction on locating periodical literature.

* An additional tab "Other Libraries" gives access to local and SUNY online catalogs.

* Search Options "Collection/Format" and "Library" have been collapsed into one box. (Users can still do a combination search on these two options in Advanced Search.

* Sample searches are provided for each search key.
