A little known service that we provide is Texshare. Think of the TexShare Databases as a virtual library. Its electronic "shelves" are stocked with encyclopedias; reference books; literature; medical information; technical, business, and scientific journals; and even current newspapers and magazines. Please note to use Texshare you need our username and password. Please contact a librarian for assistance with Texshare. You can also connect through the library's Catalog home page after signing into your library account.
