Somewhere in between syllabus week and midsemester panic, we all have the moment where we brain-fog how to do some library stuff again.

Like...
how do I get that article I need?
where do I find course reserves?
where is this book?
can someone just scan this for me?

Good news: Halle Library has a how-to guide for all of that. It covers finding articles, books, media, course reserves, full-text access, requesting items, digitization requests, and more. Basically, if you need something for class, this guide can probably help you get there faster.

Bookmark this before semester chaos starts: guides.emich.edu/help/howto

And if you have trouble with any of this, just ask us. We're here for you.
