We are thrilled to welcome new students to the Graduate Center Library, which, as Chief Librarian Polly Thistlethwaite puts it, is “small but mighty” — and to welcome back returning students. To help everyone get off to a great start with research, we encourage you to flip through our overview of library services (slides on Slideshare, and embedded below). Even if you’re a long-time library user, you might learn something you didn’t know!
For your clicking convenience, here are links to highlights from the slideshow:
- GC Library blog (on CUNY Academic Commons)
- Our Twitter and Facebook pages
- OneSearch (which simultaneously searches the library catalog and many of our databases and journals)
- Interlibrary loan
- Off-campus access and various other accounts
- CUNY Academic Works (CUNY’s new open access institutional repository)
- Research help (reference desk, 24/7 chat, etc.)
- Subject librarians
- Workshops (Zotero, archival research, etc.)
- NYPL & MaRLI (Manhattan Research Libraries Initiative)
