Welcome to the library guide for LB 492! This guide will give you some tips on how to use the library and where/how to find articles and books for your paper.
The first thing to do if you're looking for something in the library is to search from the library homepage. You can access the website at www.lib.msu.edu. You may choose to search all the kinds of materials that the library has, or you can use the dropdown menu to choose a specific type (for example, if you need a movie or music, you would choose "Books and Media"). To see tutorial videos on using the website, click the links below. To get help, either with the website or another library question, you can also click "Ask Us" to the right of the search box to chat with a librarian.
Note: If you've already found an article using Google or Google Scholar, you can copy and paste the title into the library search box to see if we have it in full text. If we don't, you can also request the article via interlibrary loan. If you're searching outside the library, you may reach screens that tell you you'll have to pay for an article, but as a member of MSU, you should never have to do that!
