There have been a few changes for the opening hours following my post on August 8th. Since there are Collegiate High School students on campus, the library is open for all the usual transactions. The USF Open Use Lab is open as well.
Opening hours are still reduced though, from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. One exception, on Wednesday, August 16th, the Library will be open from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

The PCC/USF Library will be closed during the PCC semester break, between August 10th through August 20th. The building will be open during 8 AM to 4 PM for the only purpose of settling borrowers’ records.
During that period, the USF Open Use Lab will be relocated in LAC 1170A in order to serve the USF students. The temporary lab will be open the same hours as the current Open Use Lab (Monday – Thursday 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM – Friday 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM – Saturday 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM).
I will be away from the campus from Monday, July 17th to Friday, July 28th. I will be back on Monday, July 31st.
If you need immediate assistance, you can contact the USF Tampa’s Ask-A-Librarian services or, for a short, factual question, use the PCC/USF Library.
The USF Lakeland community is invited to participate in “Stuff the Bus” with the Kiwanis Clubs of Lakeland. The purpose is to collect school supplies for kids in need. The items needed are pencils, pens, scissors, paper towels, Kleenex, folders, paper, glue sticks, liquid soap, Ziploc bags, crayons, notebooks, erasers, plastic pencil boxes or bags.
We hope to fill several baskets. Starting Monday, July 10th, the baskets will be located in LAC mail area, LLC mail area and LMA mail area. Please bring in your items by Friday, July 21st. For more information, contact Nancy Webb (667-7722 or nwebb at lakeland.usf.edu). Thank you!
The database Grove Art Online was recently updated with over 100 new and updated articles and over 420 new images as well as expanded links according to subject area. The content comprises the full text of The Dictionary of Art, edited by Jane Turner (1996, 34 vols) and The Oxford Companion to Western Art, edited by Hugh Brigstocke (2001) with new articles are added periodically.
If you are interested in art, you might want to check that database. From the library services page, choose “Search the databases” and search for “Grove Art Online”.
Opening hours for the PCC/USF Library:
Saturday July 1st – 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM
Sunday July 2nd – closed as usual
Monday July 3rd – 12:30 PM to 9:00 PM
Tuesday July 4th – closed for the holiday
Happy 4th of July to all!
Friday, June 30, I will be in Tampa all day for meetings. I will be back on Monday, July 3rd.
The USF Lakeland phone system is down for the moment. You may not be able to reach me from outside USF. The problem is being worked on.
UPDATE: the system is now operational again.
I found the following webpage that lists the differences between the PubMed and MEDLINE databases:
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/factsheets/dif_med_pub.html .
MEDLINE is a component of PubMed and both deal with the life sciences. PubMed is free and while it may be easier to use, MEDLINE will be more specialized and will link to more full-text. Both databases are still very useful to know. The USF Libraries gives you access to MEDLINE via different platforms; the OVID platform contains a subject headings map (a list of predetermined descriptors) – the MeSH – to help you formulate your queries. It is also available in PubMed. A common strategy is to use PubMed to draft a search query you will then use in MEDLINE.
