REFWORKS, for Web-Based Citation Management
The LSUHSC Libraries now have an institution-wide subscription to RefWorks, a free web-based program for managing bibliographic citations.  Easy to use for creating and formatting bibliographies and papers, RefWorks offers several methods for importing citations into your RefWorks folders.  You’ll find a link to RefWorks on the dental library home page under Services.  After you create your individual account, you’ll be able to view the online tutorial.  If you would like further information and/or help getting started, please contact the dental librarians at ext. 38507.

Library & SGA Send Donations to Soldiers in Iraq
At a book sale held in November 2004, the library netted $143.00 for the SGA.  Shortly after the book sale, library staff members decided to collect items for the troops in Iraq. The SGA officers graciously allowed the library to use the book-sale proceeds towards the expensive cost of mailing the packages.  Due to the generosity of faculty, students, and staff, we were able to send six large boxes of toiletries, snacks, sunglasses, books, and pillows to Iraq.
