Library Website Simplified!
In an effort to simplify the chaos, the library webpage has recently changed.
The “Resources by Division” link has been removed. Now use the “Resource Databases” link. The “State Library of Kansas Resources” is the primary gateway to information. The advantage of the SLK link is that no log-in or passwords are required, whether on campus or off. As long as you are in Kansas you can access these resources.*
Enter your search terms in the “Find” box. A list of books, magazines, and other electronic resources is returned. There are two frames. The left hand frame provides a summary of the search results, grouped by type of resource. The right hand frame is the detailed list of hits, grouped by type of resource. For more details on how to navigate this website, contact the library at 341-1323 or janderso@fhtc.edu.
The remaining items on the “Resources by Division” page are also available on the FHTC network without passwords. If you want to access these off the network contact the library at 341-1323 or janderso@fhtc.edu.
At this time, no other changes have been made to the FHTC Library webpage.
*If your IP provider does not reside in Kansas then you may not be able to access the website without a Kansas Library Card pin number. Follow the on-screen instructions provided.
Happy searching! Janet

Welcome!
It's the start of an exciting new semester! The library is open 7:30 am to 4:00 pm Monday through Friday. A bit later in the semester we hope to add hours so keep watching for that update.
In addition to having a new web page - which is still being worked on- we have access to new databases. Check out the library web page to see what's new.
http://fhtc.edu/Student-Services/Library.aspx
If you have suggestions for how to make the pages better, please let me know.
I look forward to seeing you at orientation and around campus.
Welcome back!
Janet
