Important Information

Searching for Materials:

There are several places you can go to search for materials on the library's website. On the main page is the WorldCat Discovery search bar, which allows you to search throughout the catalogue for physical and digital materials. 

There is also the database portal, which allows you to look for the best database for the type of digital material you need and then do your searching from there. 


Course Reserves:

Reserve materials are kept at the circulation desk. Please ask for them by the course number (e.g., PSY 324, MAT 400). At the instructors' discretion, material may be checked out for 2 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours. When checking the material out you will be told how long you may keep them. Anything on Reserve for 2 hours may not leave the library.


Help with Research:

Available on the library website is a page of research guides. This includes topics such as how to cite materials in various formats or finding statistical information. 

The reference desk is also available for research assistance from 9AM - 4PM, Monday through Friday. 


Printing Services:

Printing, copying, and scanning is available any time the library is open. The copier is located on the main floor of Gabriele Library. You can print directly from your personal device and you will use your Immaculata ID to access the materials on the copier.
