Google Scholar is a great tool for finding scholarly materials when the Library's interface seems too foreign to navigate. However, most academic resources require you to pay for them before letting you access them. You can get around this by changing your settings in Google Scholar so that you can search in Google Scholar but get access to articles via the Library without having to pay extra.

A lot of first, second, and third time library users have questions that seem too obvious to ask but are actually really important. If they don't want to ask us in person or are out of town, students can search the Library's FAQ for answers. You can either send them directly to the FAQ (http://answers.library.tulane.edu/) or embed the widget in your own guide.
While the library is open students are encouraged to chat with us so we can answer their questions as they arise. Students can find the chat box on the Library's website (http://library.tulane.edu/) in the lower left under Contact Us.
