What’s new at my library: The Digital Humanities Center in Butler Library, room 305 — an environment that provides technology and research support in one place.
Personal Favorite: The LibX toolbar extensionfor your Firefox browser allows you to search CLIO, the Libraries catalog, from any webpage. It also connects you to library resources (full text!) straight from Google Scholar. This is a must for new students!
