Credo Reference Upgrade!
Credo Reference is available under our E-Resources. We have
recently upgraded Credo and I’m going to go over what that means today.
When you do a topic search in Credo, it now also searches multiple
other databases. This means you’ll get results from other databases without
having to repeat your search within them! This doesn’t mean it will be a one
stop shop for your research, but it is a fantastic place to start and have a
great launch pad to continue from.
On the topic page of any search you will get a brief overview
of the topic and then below will be other links to references in Credo and then
from the other databases. Here is an example of how that will look:
Do you have questions? There’s an easy way to ask questions
right at the bottom of your screen!
If you have any questions Credo cannot answer, or about
anything else, our library staff is always happy to be of assistance!

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) - What is it?
Interlibrary Loan is when we get books and articles from other libraries because we don’t have what you need. You check it out here as if it were ours and we send it back when you’ve returned it.
This does
take some time so make sure you put in a request early enough for it to come
through the mail (2-4 weeks is recommended).
Check out
our ILL page for more info about it here
Have
questions or issues? Feel free to ask us for help! We’re here to be of
assistance!

Farewell Morning Chat, Hello Ask-A-Librarian
Good morning! Unfortunately, due to lack of use, we have had to stop doing the Morning Chat for the time being. If enough people express an interest in it's return we may try it again.
However, this does not mean you have no chatting functions available to you! Ask-A-Librarian is available almost every single day of the year! Through the link on our library home page, or through www.askalibrarian.org you will be put in touch with a librarian and can chat with them for immediate assistance. There is a phone app for both apple and android devices as well as the web capabilities.
What can you do with Ask-A-Librarian? You can email, chat, or text a librarian in the state of Florida that is able to answer questions as if they worked here. These can be research questions or something as simple as when is the library open. If you want to email a librarian that works here at Saint Leo, you can fill in this form and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
Do you have any questions about Ask-A-Librarian? Feel free to ask them in the comments below, email us, or use Ask-A-Librarian to ask your question!
Do you have something you'd like covered by the blog? Let us know and we'll do our best to meet all requests!
Have a wonderful day!
