With so many students returning to campus for the Fall semester, we’re seeing a number of issues accessing the wireless network. If the directions that the Library or Nursing School have posted aren’t working out. Try not checking off any of the certificate authorities. When the popup box comes up to accept the security certificate, wait a few moments before clicking OK. It seems like if you click through the boxes too quickly, you end up stuck in a login loop.
If this doesn’t work, we can try to help in the Library or you can hunt down a computer supporter in your school.
A number of patrons have been receiving a certificate error when attempting to use the Library’s Remote Access system (WAM).
The certificate was renewed by LSU-Baton Rouge but is not propigating properly for some reason. To install the certificate, click on the from the following link. And then choose Open and then Install. Accept any other default settings. *Please note that this certificate only works with Internet Explorer & not Firefox.*
Once installation is complete (takes about 10 seconds), attempt the off-campus link from the Library’s webpages again.
~EDIT~ This issue is now resolved thanks to the efforts of the IT staff.

Wednesday, April 22: RefWorks Liz Strother
RefWorks is a free web-based bibliography and database manager that allows you to create your own personal database by importing references from text files or online databases and other various sources. You can use these references in writing papers and automatically format the paper and the bibliography in seconds.
A new feature in Web of Science debuted recently. The new citation map feature allows first & second generation mapping of citations both backwards and forwards. The resulting map can be customized and edited. (An ActiveX Install was necessary on both computers where I tried this new feature.)

Here’s a first generation both direction example from 1999 written by emeritus professor, Brian Gebhardt. His article cites 37 different articles and has been cited 16 times so far.
The Isché Library color copier has moved to the 5th floor.
Because of maintenance in RCB, ILLiad will be offline from 5 a.m. to 6:30 a.m. on Monday, February 16th.
The Isché Library now has a color photocopier available for use. The costs of copies for this machine is 25¢ each. At this moment, it can only make color copies, so no 10¢ copies are available. It is currently housed on the 3rd floor.
Like all the photocopiers in the Libraries, it is administrated by Auxiliary Enterprises.
The ILLiad email service has been restored. Thanks for your patience.
We’ve just learned that the ILLiad (interlibrary loan service) emails have not been going through for th last week or so. We are working to correct this problem. And apologize for the inconvenience.
~Update~ It should be repaired by tomorrow.
Did you know:
1. You can save your PubMed search.
2. Run the same search each week (or month) for updated articles (My NCBI).
3. Store your PubMed citations (and the full-text) in RefWorks.
4. Use Write-N-Cite to insert your citations into your Word document.
5. Create a bibliography for your paper.
Contact the library?óÔé¼Ôäós reference department reference@lsuhsc.edu where one of the librarians can assist you in setting up these available services. You can take it one step at a time.
Need a refresher or want to learn more about REFWORKS (our premier bibliographic management tool), but don’t have the time? REFWORKS IN 15 MINUTES is an online class designed just for you! Dates and times are below.
RefWorks in 15 Minutes
While the ideal way to teach users the basic features of RefWorks is to conduct a full training session, we realize that in some situations you may have only a few minutes to demonstrate the power of RefWorks. During this session, you’ll rapidly learn: how to create an account; direct export citations from two databases; create a folder; create a bibliography from a list of citations; and create a bibliography using Write N’ Cite.

Just a quick reminder that most LSUHSC-New Orleans resources are available off campus (any where not on the LSUHSC network). This includes full-text materials, books & journals. Check out our handy tutorial.
Check out the LSUHSC ?óÔé¼ÔÇ£ New Orleans Faculty Publications database for your 2008 publications to make sure yours are included. I check Biological Abstracts, CINAHL, Web of Science, PubMed, SCOPUS, and EMBASE.com for publications from LSUHSC ?óÔé¼ÔÇ£ NO. Books, book chapters, and local and regional conference abstracts are not indexed in these resources and may have been overlooked.
If your 2008 publication is not there, please submit citation information to Kathy Kerdolff, Reference Librarian (kkerdo@lsuhsc.edu).
