The new SNU online catalog officially ALIVE! 

 

Go to www.snu.edu/library to check out the new Encore Millennium online catalog by entering a word in the Encore searchbox or clicking on Online Catalog on the navigation bar to check your account and other options .   You may browse for books, DVDs, periodical articles, databases, and ebooks through the same search term and find its location within seconds.  You may also check your account to see what is checked out and renew items, and can pay your fines online with a credit card.  Suggest a purchase, make comments, ask a librarian, read summaries, rate your favorite titles, and access other library web resources or purchase the item you want from Amazon, all through federated searching. 

 

Thanks to the SNU administration, library staff,  and the collection development committee who made it happen! 

 

Special thanks to

The SNU Library's new Innovative Encore Millennium Integrated Library System with federated searching will go live at www.snu.edu/library on October 13.   It's simple discovery searching that begins with a Google-type box into which you type an author, title, keyword, or subject to retrieve books, ebooks, dvds, videos, and other materials including that search term (with photos of the book jackets, table of contents, summary, and other information to provide additional information).  The search term is also linked to articles in Ebscohost, JStor, Gale, Wilson, and FirstSearch databases.  Just enter the name and barcode number on your new SNU ID card and you can continue the same search through the library's online databases.  One search term does it all!  Users can monitor their accounts, renew materials, pay fines online, and rate the items they have especially liked from home or in the library.  Community users may obtain an annual card for $10.  For more information, go to www.snu.edu/library or call 405-491-6351.  The library is open Monday-Thursday 7:45 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., Friday from 7:45 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Sunday from 7:30 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. E-mailed reference questions may be sent to lrcreference@snu.edu or texted to 309-222-7740 by entering the code SNU.
