New phone lines in the Ische Library

The Isché Library rolled out new VoiP telephones this morning. The difference should be seamless for library patrons but some staff members do have new telephone numbers. Carolyn Bridgewater can be found at 504-568-6104; Rita Premo‘s new number is 504-568-7717; and Valerie Hernandez now has 504-568-6107 as her number. All other staff telephone numbers are available.

INNOPAC

The Library Catalog, INNOPAC, is currently acting a bit wonky. It seems to have lost the ability to distinguish between New Orleans and Shreveport. Customer Support is working on the problem.

*Edit* And all issues were resolved (#fingerscrossed) at 10:50am

Accessing Resources from the Hospitals

The wired and wireless networks at UMC, Children’s, and any of the other hospitals are neither part of nor managed by the Health Sciences Center, so if you need to access Library resources while at the hospitals you will need to do the following:

• Go to http://www.lsuhsc.edu and choose the Citrix icon
•  You can also go to http://citrixweb.lsuhsc.edu directly
• Log on using your LSUHSC user i.d. and password; you may also be prompted to install the Citrix Receiver before you are able to log in
• Choose “Desktop-New”
• When your Citrix session is up and running, go to the Start Menu to open up Internet Explorer
• From the LSUHSC homepage, choose “Libraries” on the left
• You can then choose which resource you would like to use
  • To find out whether the Library has access to a particular book or journal, click the link for “Library Catalog/INNOPAC”
  • If you wish to search for articles through PubMed, want to use AccessMedicine, or any other databases, choose “Databases” from the left and then go to the page for that resource
    • Be sure to click the “Off Campus” link for any database you want
    • Citrix sessions are sometimes not recognized as being on campus, so you may also be asked to provide your name, barcode, and PIN that is used to access Library resources when off campus

Photogrammar – WPA photos

FSA (Farm Security Administration) dentist and migrant child in the FSA dental trailer at the FSA camp for farm families. Caldwell, Idaho (November 1941) – Russell Lee

Yale University and the National Endowment for the Humanities have indexed the 170,000 photos created by the US Farm Security Administration and the Office of War Information. All photos were created from 1935 through 1945. Photogrammar organizes the photos so they are searchable via map location, photographer, classification tags (medicine and health for instance), and eventually by treemap, metadata dashboard and colorspace.
