Get articles easier with Libkey Nomad Chrome extension!

We are excited to announce a new tool that will enhance and simplify the research experience for our IHS community: Libkey Nomad.

Libkey Nomad, a browser extension for Google Chrome, automatically links to full-text content from websites such as PubMed, Wikipedia, and Google Scholar.  To quote Third Iron, “Libkey Nomad keeps libraries at the heart of the research process by connecting researchers to library content, even when the user is not in the library.”

Installation instructions for Libkey Nomad can be found here.

If you have questions or need help with downloading the extension, contact you IHS librarian directly or via ihslibrary@shu.edu.

IHS Library celebrates our first year in our 2018-2019 Annual Report

The IHS librarians are delighted to share our IHS 2018-2019 Annual Report. The report highlights our accomplishments in our first year serving the IHS community, including:

  • Collaborating on teaching and learning with the 3 schools we serve;
  • Heavy usage of the databases, journals, and textbooks we license for IHS, as well as the website and online toolkits we’ve developed;
  • Offering reserved study spaces, which were booked 15,000 times in FY2018-2019; and
  • A myriad of interprofessional collaborations across the campus community.

We are happy to call the IHS campus home, and we are proud to be your library!
