Does this website look familiar?
It should, it's a site we use everyday. We've looked at a lot of things that you can access just by going through our website, but with the new redesign, do you know how to find all of your favorite features of the old site? What about the features you didn't even know were there?
For instance, we have many of our policies posted online on our website for patrons to read. Just look under the "About us" and "Services" section on the website for those.
What about the Bookmobile Schedule? (Hint: click on the "Bookmobile" quick link, or go to the "Branches" menu.)
Can you find the Novelist, Ancestry and Heritage Quest links that were once directly on the front page? (There's two ways, actually. All three can be found on the databases page, and Ancestry and Heritage Quest can be accessed through the Genealogy page.)
Take a look at the Subject Guides, found under the Research Menu. Do you see popular research topics on there? You should. Need online sources on inventors, Native Americans, or going to college? Check here first!
Your Task: Explore our website! Especially take a look at the Quick Links, as well as the subject guides we have available. Is there anything you did not know was on our website? What is the most helpful resource you found?
Bonus Link: The University of Michigan has installed a "Book ATM". For $10, the machine will print and bind any digitized out of print book in their collection. If you've ever seen the prices in college bookstores, this is awesome.
