How do I...?

Use 'Find it at CU' during construction

Please pardon our dust as we work to make Norlin Library a better place to work, study, and be. For more information about the construction project, please visit the Norlin Revitalized page. Visit the main 'How do I 'CU students/ staff/ facultyf': Retrieve Articles During Construction' page for more details.

If you are NOT a CU student, faculty or staff please proceed to Public Patrons: Retrieving Articles During Construction.

Using Find it at CU

The Find it at CU window, will determine if you can access the article in full text, with Chinook, or if you need to request an electronic copy.

 

If available electronically retrieve by selecting a link to full text. Example:

 

 

If not available electronically, check Chinook for availability. Example:

1. If the volume, issue , and year you need is 'Available' in Chinook:
   • Note location and call number.
     • To request an article from location PASCAL, go to Illiad.
