The Borror Laboratory of Bioacoustics Recorded Animal Sounds Collection has been added to OhioLINK's Digital Media Center. More than 3,900 recordings of New World Warblers (small, active songbirds) are now publicly available at http://worlddmc.ohiolink.edu/media/borror/blbLogin.
This collection was contributed by The Ohio State University's Borror Laboratory of Bioacoustics. The BLB's collection is one of the largest in the world with approximately 28,000 recordings of over 1000 species of animals. The remaining recordings will be added to the DMC in the coming months.
OhioLINK’s redesigned Web site is now live. The most prominent feature in the new design is the Quick and Simple Search option. This tool allows users to search for articles and books across several broad databases simultaneously. The Quick and Simple Search is designed for users who need results in a hurry and do not desire in-depth, research level searching.
The new Web site also features a link to the Chat with a Librarian service directly from OhioLINK’s home page. Chat with a Librarian delivers reference services where they are needed most—right to the user’s workstation.
OhioLINK users can also visit the enhanced “Features and Hints” section for new tips, including “Creating E-journal Alerts” and “Creating an Electronic Course Page.”
