Design Contest - Win Glory Forever

Calling all students!

Do you have a knack for illustration/design? The library wants YOU to enter our design contest.

The Ezra Lehman Memorial Library recently implemented use of a single search product which gives users the ability to search nearly all of the print and electronic resources available through the library in one place! We want to give life to this spectacular search tool, which is why this semester the Library will hold a contest for students to create an image that will represent the Ebsco Discovery Search (or ED).

Give ED a persona and submit your creation to the contest by sending a .jpg or .png file to librarian@ship.edu. Be sure to include your name and contact information too!

Submission deadline: March 31, 2015

Student voting on 3 finalists: April 6-10, 2015

Winner announced: April 14, 2015

Learn more about contest details and ED related events by visiting the contest webpage. We hope you'll help us bring ED to life!

Library Databases Update: Ready to go!

Happy Saturday, Shippensburg!

It looks like Ship Library's databases are stable and available this morning -- hopefully last night's brief service window gave you some time for fun and friends. 

It's time to get back to researching your papers and assignments...

Please let us know if you're having trouble with any of the databases or would like some help with your research. The easy way is to search Instant Answers (there's an Instant Answers widget on the right side of this page) with the topic of your question - if we haven't already answered it, please submit your question through our contact form!
