Alkek Flickr and YouTube Accounts

Alkek Library now has a presence on Flickr. Some pics have been added and more will soon follow. We plan on using the Flickr account to show photos of events and things going on in the library. You can see what's up at the library by going to the flickr Alkek Library website. We would love to see your comments on the photos.

Also, if you are interested in YouTube, you can find a couple of videos posted by the library. We have a good video on exporting citations to Refworks you can watch. There are also a few videos about searching databases. Here are the search results from YouTube searching Alkek Library.

We plan on adding more videos and photos this summer, now that things are somewhat slower. Feel free to suggest a video you would like to see on YouTube.

Citeulike.org--Social software for academic papers

Curious what other articles people are reading? Want to share interesting articles you are reading now?
Use CiteULike to keep track of the academic papers you are reading, store them, and also share them with other people. It sure beats the piles of "I am going to read this eventually" and "I think this is cool but I haven't had a chance to pass it along to everyone" articles cluttering the desk. (I speak for myself on this detail.) :) You can also export to BibTex or Endnote (unsure about Refworks).
Copy this button to allow people to add your peer-reviewed journal article to CiteULike.
