Computer Tips for the End of the Semester

1. Save your Documents! When working on Library computers, save your files to either your Z drive or flash drive. Documents in the Saved Documents folder are erased each night or whenever a computer is restarted.

2. Jazz up your final paper with color images and charts. A color printer is available in the Library. The cost is $0.50/page. Alas, your $8.00 of free printing cannot be used towards color printing. Ask your librarian for instructions on how to print in color.

3. Remember that our printers print double sided. To print singled sided, you need to change it manually through the properties feature in the print box.

Does Research Have You at a Crossroads?

With only a month left until the end of classes, assignment deadlines are starting to loom. Don’t wait until the last minute to get the research help you need.

Set up a RAP appointment with a reference librarian. We’re your guide on the side. Whether it is a solo or group project, a librarian can help you brainstorm paper topics, explore search options, design research strategies and locate resources.

Stop by the reference desk to complete a RAP form or fill out a form online at www.lib.montana.edu/forms/rapreq.php
