1. ANNOUNCEMENTS
A. INTRODUCING ONESEARCH
OneSearch, a simple and fast search engine that helps you discover relevant
information on any topic from the Fogler Library collections, is now available on the
library home page <http://www.library.umaine.edu/>. It’s a great place to start your
research in scholarly journals, books, and more. From your search results, it’s one
step to the full text of articles or to finding a book on the shelf.
OneSearch is not a complete replacement for searching the library’s subscription
databases, but it is a convenient way to get an overview of the literature on a
topic.
The OneSearch search box is set to exclude results from newspapers. If you are
searching for a current-events topic or would otherwise like to see newspaper
articles, you can uncheck the “Exclude Newspaper Articles” box on the left side of
the search results screen.
OneSearch is always growing and changing, and at Fogler Library we want to make sure
we are serving your needs as best as we can. Please use Ask a Librarian
<http://maine.cb.docutek.com/um/vrl_entry.asp> to let us know what you think.

2. SERVICES
A. TAX FORMS
For individuals needing either Federal or Maine State tax forms and instructions,
links are available from the Fogler Library home page
<http://www.library.umaine.edu/>. The links are located on the right side of the page
directly below the What’s New section.

3. COLLECTIONS
A. FACULTY OF 1000
Fogler Library now provides access to Faculty of 1000, a unique online service that
identifies the most important articles and trends across biology and medicine.
Articles are classified and evaluated by peer-nominated expert clinicians and
researchers who explain why the papers they recommend are essential reading. Access
