Whether you are starting your Master’s or beginning your lit review for your dissertation, organization is a key factor in reducing the level of anxiety any of these large projects can produce in anyone. Endnote is software which can keep your reading list in order, keep track of what you read, what you thought about what you read and keep a record of important thoughts and facts that brought you to where you are right now. Endnote can be a partner in helping in citing works while you are writing and building the right kind of bibliography when you are done.
For more information about Endnote, how to use it and what ways it can help you, see our EndNote LibGuide.

Lockers: Graduate students may apply for one of the nearly 450 lockers located in Carlson Library. The small lockers are located near the stairwells on the 3rd (north side only) and 4th floors. Lockers are assigned on a semester basis, and you can use them as a safe place to store your stuff while in the library, or to keep frequently consulted materials (be sure to check out the items at the Circulation Desk first!) To request a locker, fill out the application available at the Carlson Circulation Desk.
If you are a Teaching Assistant: We can help teach your classes how to use the library, too! We have classrooms in the Carlson Library (some with hands-on computer labs), or we can come to your classroom or lab. See the Faculty Services page for more details
