This semester, the Hardin Library for the Health Sciences will begin offering “drop-in” help sessions for wireless devices such as PDAs, Smartphones, iPhones, and iTouches.  The Hardin Library will help patrons set up their devices for wireless, as well as help them access library subscriptions to PDA resources. 

 

The help sessions will be every Friday from 10am-2pm in the Information Commons East. 

 

Although the help will always be available if patrons need it, individuals that need a lot of help, or would like their devices completely configured for them, should plan to stop by on Fridays.

 

A library guide to accessing wireless device resources can be found at:

________________________________________________
The UI Libraries Interlibrary Loan system will be undergoing a software upgrade beginning at 5:00 p.m., Tuesday, January 6.  During the upgrade, the system will be shut down.  Library users will not be able to submit new interlibrary loan requests, ask for renewals, or view already posted documents while the system is down. This will effect library users on the Main campus as well as at Hardin.
If the upgrade goes smoothly, the system will be back up by 12:00 noon on Wednesday, January 7.  However, it is possible that the system will need to be shut down for a longer period.  If that is the case, it will be announced here..
For any questions, please contact the Hardin staff.
