As temperatures in the Valley continue to climb into the triple digits, the libraries are a cool oasis from the summer heat. So kick back and let Anali show you how to beat the heat with fun and relaxing things you can do at the libraries.  You can grab a cold drink and a snack, watch a movie, surf the web, play some games and more.

Need quality information fast? Our librarians can get you started right away.  This week Anali introduces you to the ASU Libraries’ LibGuides.

LibGuides are resources handpicked by our subject librarians covering a wide variety of subjects and courses taught at Arizona State University.  Because they list only the best items for your subject, they can save you lots of time sorting by getting you right to what you need.  They also provide quick contact information for the subject librarian for each one — so you can quickly get help from an expert in that area.

Check out our LibGuides online by choosing the “Find Subject and Course Guides” link from the library’s web site.

In this week’s Library Minute Anali Perry introduces ASU’s Ask a Librarian service.   Ask a Librarian provides options to get you quickly in touch with our knowledgeable and experienced reference librarians.  These librarians are here to help you succeed in your scholarship and research at ASU.   You’ve got four ways to Ask a Librarian:  Chat, email, phone, and in person.
