Journal of Geophysical Research

In case I missed some people with my message regarding AGU-published journals (specifically Journal of Geophysical Research), you can see the details of our options on my wiki. Please let me know how you feel about these options.

Instant Messaging Reference Service

If you use an instant messaging service, such as Yahoo! Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger, or MSN, you can now ask reference questions right from your contact list. In the science library, we are experimenting with IM Reference, which will make asking reference questions much easier for students and faculty.

There will be two screennames, WLULibRef and WLULibRef2. If you like, add these names to your contact list. If you would rather not add to your contact list, you can send a message directly from our online status page at http://library.wlu.edu/science/imreference.asp.

Presently, Cindy and I are working some bugs out of our schedule and the online status page, so please let us know if you encounter problems. We hope to have the service fully functioning by the time Fall Term begins.

UPDATE: We will only be using 1 screenname: WLULibRef. Please disregard WLULibRef2.
