I just decided to do all four responses so here they are.
How to Find a Book.
First off, this is about how to find a book in the library. Here are the steps of how to. On the library website search for the title of the book or for the topic of it. Narrow down what kind of book that you want because so many different choices of book will pop up from the first search. That will help with lowering the book count. An easy way to help break down the book count is to use the word "and" in the search bar. Then once again, look at the books that were chosen and see if it is available in the library. If it is available, then a map will pop up and will tell you where it is actually located in the library. Then, use the call number to go and fine the book. BE QUIET BECAUSE IT IS A LIBRARY. THen, look for signs that lead you towards the book. Look at the signs on the bookcase shelves for the call number. Once you find it, look for other book because there will be other ones with the same topic nearby. Finally, go to the 4th or 2nd floor to check the book out. (A student I.D. is needed to do so).
Finding Full Text from Citation.
If you have a citation but not a full text and that is what you want, here is what to do. Get the title of the article that you want and go to the library webpage. Click Alice and go to periodical title, type in the name or the title of the article). Then, click electronic resource. Find the right date, the volume and issue of the article. If it is there, you can get a PDF version of the full text of the article. If is not there, fill out the request and it will be sent to you for free.
How to get a Book from OHIOLink.
First, look for a specific book. If the status of the book isn't "available" then you will have to wait about three business days to receive it. Search OHIOLink to see if any copies are available. Any of the available ones in Ohio will pop up. Click request, then Ohio University. Use your I.D. (P ID number too) and then pick a place where you can pick the book up. When the book arrives, an email will be sent to your email saying that you can go pick the book up whenever.
Articles Plus-Finding Scholarship.
First, here is an overview of a scholarly article. What makes them different from other articles is the title, authors, abstract, introduction, article text, conclusions and works cited. Ok, so type in a topic so you can find the topics of what you are looking for. Some of the articles that pop up with have PDF's. Check if the full text is available or anywhere else in the library database. Then go to the electronic journal center. This can be very difficult, so don't be afraid to ask questions.
