Posted on by

Please Note that on Friday, Feb 4, at 7am, we will be performing technical maintenance on the UC Libraries website that will require us to reload the entire site. While the site is loading, there will be some display issues. The content will be available, but the header, QuickLINKS, tabs, and main navigation will not be visible. It is anticipated that the update will take 1-2 hours; however, as the site loads, the display will improve. The display issue affects the main site as well as College and Department sites, with the exception of the Health Sciences Library.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Dinosaur Sculpture Looms Large in Langsam Library

Posted on by

Langsam Library is the new home for Triceracopter – an impressive half triceratops, half helicopter 30-foot sculpture.

Created in 1977 by artist Patricia A. Renick to commemorate the U.S. Bicentennial, Triceracopter: The Hope for the Obsolescence of War combines the form of a triceratops dinosaur with an Army OH6A Cayuse combat helicopter flown in Vietnam. Although a triceratops and a helicopter are unlikely candidates for a single sculpture, the artist has combined them to invite wonder and nudge reflective thinking.

The Health Sciences Library has moved to a new system (Illiad) for requesting articles and books.  To access the system, look for the Request Article/Books link on the left side of the Health Sciences Library’s web page (http://www.libraries.uc.edu/hsl).   Use your UC central login credentials to access the system.  Once you log into the Illiad system for the first time, you will be prompted to complete a profile.  You will only need to complete the profile one time. Illiad will store the information for use on all future requests.

Introducing Images, a New Database of Images in Biomedical Literature from the National Institutes of Health

Posted on by

The National Institutes of Health (NIH)  introduces Images, a new resource of images in Biomedical Literature.    This collection of more than 2.5 million images and figures are from medical and life sciences journals contained in NCBI’s PubMed Central full-text digital archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature.

The Images database is expected to have a wide range of uses for a variety of user groups. These include the clinician looking for the visual representation of a disease or condition, the researcher searching for studies with certain types of analyses, the student seeking diagrams that elucidate complex processes such as DNA replication, the professional or educator looking for an image for a presentation, and the patient wanting to better understand his disease.

The Images database is available at <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/images>.  There is also a link to it on the Health Sciences Library “Online Images” page at http://libraries.uc.edu/hsl/reference/elec/digitalimages.cfm.

See the NIH News Release at http://www.nih.gov/news/health/oct2010/nlm-28.htm.
