The most reliable way to find out if Grafton Library has access to a journal article is to search the Journal Finder. While the vast majority of our journal holdings are electronic, we do have some print and microform collections. Please see a staff member if you need to access an item in one of these collections. Remember, if we don't have access to a journal, you can use the ILL Request Form!
You can search for the item using the course reserves search. Items on reserve are available at the Circulation Desk on the main floor of the library. Each student may checkout up to three reserves at one time. Reserves check out for 4 hours and may not leave the library. If you need to watch a DVD that's on Reserve, you can check out the portable DVD player, which can be hooked up to a larger screen if desired.
You access Grafton's electronic books through the Grafton Library Discovery Service (GLDYS). If your search results, say "eBook" under the author then the item is an ebook, and you can access it by clicking on the view ebook link.
