<p>Late this morning, the University Library launched a <a href="http://www.lib.umich.edu/">new website</a> and <a href="http://mirlyn.lib.umich.edu/">Mirlyn catalog</a>. The new site makes it easier to search across resource types and topics, including Search Tools, catalog materials, ejournals and Deep Blue.

<p>Wireless will still be available throughout the 2nd and 3rd floors, as well as on the east side of the 4th floor, until the new access points are complete.

Today, those old, out-of-date pages are going to go away, and will be replaced entirely by the wiki.</p>

<p>Since Kresge Librarians started working on the wiki, it's quickly become the most actively updated part of our website, and one of the most popular sections. It's accessible to all our librarians to edit, and so we can quickly adapt its content to our users' needs. We've already created pages tailored to courses, MAP teams, and other projects, as well as pages that organize recommended resources according to research topic.</p>

<p>Check out the <a href="http://webservices.itcs.umich.edu/mediawiki/KresgeLibrary/index.php/Kresge_Business_Administration_Library_Wiki">Kresge Library Wiki</a> for your own project. If you don't find the information you're looking for, <a href="http://www.bus.umich.edu/KresgeLibrary/Help/contact.htm">contact us</a>, and we'll probably add the resources we discuss with you.</p>]]>
