 Welcome to this overview of how the Murdoch University Library can support you in your studies. The library homepage has links to many useful resources. The menu bar at the top of the library homepage will take you to more detailed information about the resources and services provided by the library. The first thing that captures your eye on the library homepage is the library search panel. This allows you to conduct a search across the library's resources by title, author or by subject. Just type in the search words for what you want to know and click on search. The search results will list the library's resources with those search words. Results can be refined to include only peer-reviewed articles by date and by other filters. But the library does much more than give you access to articles and books. Look to the side of the search panel for links to our most used resources. The first link is to the databases page. More complex searches for articles can be conducted in databases. You can locate a specific database by its title or search for databases by subject. By selecting the opening hours from the popular links, you'll be taken to the opening hours of each Murdoch University Library for this week and the next. This is useful as opening times vary with teaching and non-teaching weeks. There's also information about the learning common on level 2 of the Jeffrey Bolton Library which is open 24-7. The link for Book a Room takes you to the library's bookings page where you can reserve group or individual study rooms for up to 2 hours each day and up to 2 weeks in advance. These are great for when you're working on group assignments or want to concentrate on your studies. The Add Print Credit page is where you can add credit to your student card, which is also used as your library card. You can then use your card to pay for photocopying, although this is free if you want to save trees and scan to a USB from the photocopiers. You can also pay fines from here. Scroll down the library home page to the support block. The Support for Students page includes an overview of how the library can support you in your study from the Getting Started tile. Click on the Help tiles for developing your study skills, the all-important referencing guides, the library services for accessibility for students located off campus and for enquiries. There are also tailored resources for researchers. This page provides access to resources such as guides for how to write literature or systematic reviews or how to write a thesis. Along with the links to support resources are other useful links. Select My Library to access your library account. Using your student number and password, your library account enables you to renew borrowed items. A useful link on this page is the one for changing your password. By remaining logged in, you can save your library searches or see the books that you've previously borrowed. The link to My Unit Readings gives access to the reading lists for each unit. Simply type in your unit code or unit name and click on the search icon. You can then access articles, book chapters, print and e-books assigned as readings for your units. Check the My Unit Readings page before you purchase any textbooks. There's usually a link to My Unit Readings from each unit in LMS too. The referencing guides page has links to guides for all referencing styles used at Murdoch University. Unit guides specify which referencing style you should be following for your assignments. At the bottom of the library home page is the library's contact information. Complete an inquiry form to request help with searching or referencing. Or feel free to phone us if you have a simple question. The library is here to support you in your studies at Murdoch University. For research help, visit the Murdoch University Library.
