Distance Education Advisories & Resources

June 1 , 2009

June's residency : the libraries look forward to welcoming doctoral candidates for your residency, we'll be meeting with you Monday June 1st, at 1:15 pm, at Mugar Memorial Library, 771 Comm Ave, 2nd floor.

For all users regardless of your location: when you navigate through the BU library web pages to electronic indexes, databases and electronic journals you will be prompted at various points of entry for your kerberos login/password combination. This authentication step assures your access to the holdings.

Mac users & .pdfs: please see this new advisory if you encounter difficulties opening .pdfs and 'Preview' is your default application. We thank Ron Giltrap of Information Technology for the final diagnosis and solution presented here.
