News
Gloria sent out four journal titles to the bindery last week: Polar Record, Polar Research, Polish Polar Research, and Seppyo. These should be back in the library in approximately six weeks. In the meantime, if you need to access one of these journals, just tell Gloria or Allaina. We will be glad to help you find what you need.

Staff Report
This week, Gloria will be out of the office on Thursday and Friday, March 6 and 7.

Reminder
If you have suggestions for or have found something that doesn’t work in the intranet catalog, please let us know. We are always glad to have your input and want to fix any problems.

Hints for Searching the NSIDC Web Catalog
This is a new section we thought you might find useful. Each week we will give you search suggestions to help refine your searches in the library catalog.

Today’s hint: Searches are key word searches in all fields except dates. We find that the most accurate searches use just a key word or two in the title field and either the author’s last name or date of publication. In this instance, less is more.

Notes
Thanks to all who contribute to the candy fund!! It is very much appreciated!
