It’s back . . . and the Shiffman Library’s Selected Clinical eBook list is better than ever!

• AccessMedicine

The eBook list is updated automatically when new titles become available. To find even more e-books, search the WSU Catalog or try the new Encore interface for easy keyword searching.

In an effort to create a more comfortable environment for our library users, we will be installing new furniture in the computer and reference area on the first floor of Purdy Library.
This installation will begin December 18 and will last through the holiday break. Library users will not have access to this area during that time. However, the stacks will be open to users and reference services will be available. We apologize for any inconvenience and encourage patrons to visit the Undergraduate Library or the Science & Engineering Library during the upgrade.
Thank you.
