UConn Library
Jeremy Richard Library, Stamford
On Monday July 31, 2006, NetLibrary will proudly introduce the all-new NetLibrary 4.0, a major site upgrade that will provide improved search performance, a fresh new look and feel, and powerful new navigation tools.
To mark the transition from two versions of WebCT to one, the university will be renaming WebCT to HuskyCT “Husky Course Tools.”.
Update 7/19/06: Homer is back up and running.
HOMER, the Library catalog, is currently not working. We are actively looking into the cause of the problem, and hope to have the problem resolved soon. We apologize for the inconvenience. To find books at UConn, try WorldCat.
The Center for Research Libraries (CRL) is a non-profit consortium of colleges, universities and libraries that aims at acquiring and making available important but relatively rarely used materials in support of teaching and research. Its outstanding collections include over four million newspapers, journals, dissertations, archives, government publications and other traditional and digital resources. Because the University Libraries have membership in CRL, the University of Connecticut students, faculty, and staff may borrow these collections through Interlibrary Loan. For more information, see: http://www.lib.uconn.edu/online/services/crl/crl.htm
What is the important information entering students to the University of Connecticut need to know? What is a PeopleSoft number? NetID? An FYE Class? Huskymail?
