Athens Toolbar

The MyAthens IE toolbar is an Internet Explorer add-on designed to assist existing Athens users manage their accounts and navigate between Athens resources. The toolbar should have been installed on most, if not all, college PCs over the summer.

It should be visible below the address bar of Internet Explorer. If it is not, go to the menu View/Toolbars/Athens Toolbar to turn the toolbar on. Athens Options now allows you to log directly on to Athens. When you’ve done so you’ll get a list of options including a pull-down menu which takes you directly to your available resources.

Beginnings

As it says on the tin, just the facts.

This site will be used for simple library information – new additions to stock, websites which will (rather than may) be of some interest. (The real meat will still be posted to Arkive).

Well, that is the theory anyway. Oh, yeah, any book reviews, or indeed any reviews of resources would be gratefully received.
