One of the things we often hear from you is that our website is a bit outdated. We agree!
We’ve been working hard to put together a redesign, and now we need your feedback. So click around and let us know what you think! It’s still a work in progress, so pieces, like the guides, haven’t been fully updated yet.
We will incorporate your ideas this summer. While the website may undergo design changes between now and when we go live, we’re especially interested in if you can find the content you need.

If you would like some personalized help with your research, we’re piloting an easier way for you to schedule an appointment:

The Library understands you may want the fastest and most direct way to find and access the resources you need for your coursework. With the start of Spring semester 2015, we have introduced a new feature in the Library’s OneSearch portal. In the upper left of the results page when searching in OneSearch, you’ll notice the header Refine Results, and beneath that, Current Search. Under Current Search, now you will find the default limiter, “In Print and Online at Longwood.” This automatically directs the search service to retrieve only the records for material which is directly available for your use, whether physically or electronically – ignoring all listings in databases for materials which are not either owned by the Library or available through Library resources.
This limiter can also be removed if you wish to search more broadly; clicking the white-on-blue “X” to the right of “In Print and Online at Longwood” disables the limiter, enabling the retrieval of citations and abstracts for un-owned materials, for which you may place Interlibrary Loan Requests (by clicking on the “Request through interlibrary loan” link in blue text beneath each result’s brief record). Closing your search page and restarting another search will re-enable the “In Print and Online at Longwood” limiter if you again wish to limit your search results.
For her internship, business student Jenny Silva will be helping the Library create personas. Personas are profiles of typical users of a product or place, created through actual data gathered from users and merged to create fictional (but likely) users to help guide decisions and better understand users needs and wants.
To gather data, we’ve created anonymous surveys that students, faculty and staff can complete. All answers are optional. Even if you’ve never used the Library, we are interested in your thoughts. Thank you for participating!

The Library’s computer printers use LancerCa$h. All users will need a current LancerCard or Guest Card for printing. Guest cards can be purchased for one dollar at a LancerCa$h add-value station, one of which is in the Library between the copiers. Printing costs 9 cents per page for black and white, and one dollar per page for color.
To print, you will log on to any of the desktop computers in the Library and open the file you wish to print, then follow the steps below.
