Research Process
How Do I?
- How Do I...? How do I see what's available at the library? How do I reserve a study room? How do I get items that aren't available at Mikkelsen Library? How do I check my library account and renew my items? How do I get help with my research? How do I access library resources from off-campus? How do I find an item that is on reserve for my class? How do I print in the library? How do I access the technology available at the library? How do I contact the library?
