Reference Resources
LFGSM’s reference resources include the online Electric Library and the Online Computer Library Center (OCLC). LFGSM provides student access to the Electric Library and OCLC through savvyWORKS, LFGSM’s secure student administrative Web site. Access is available remotely via the Internet or from student computers located at each campus.
The Electric Library has content from six sources totaling millions of documents: reference books, magazines, newspapers, TV/radio transcripts, maps, and photographs. The resources are updated daily. The Electric Library features online help and a powerful, easy-to-use search engine.
OCLC provides a service called FirstSearch, a comprehensive and complete reference service with a rich collection of databases and links to the World Wide Web. Over nine million online full-text articles and over 4,000 full-image articles from electronic journals, library holdings, and inter-library loan are accessible through this service. It supports research in a wide range of subject areas with well-known bibliographic and full-text databases in addition to ready-reference tools such as directories, almanacs, and encyclopedias.
Each LFGSM campus is located near additional reference resources. Per the Illinois Libraries Agreement, anyone holding a valid Illinois library card may have usage privileges at all local and Chicago libraries.
