Government sources can be a great for business research. Here are several ways to locate government information:

1. Search in Google - type in your keywords and then add site:.gov This will search only government sites for your keywords.

2. Use the government search engine http://www.usa.gov

3. Look at the CSU Libraries government resource pages at http://libguides.colostate.edu/govdoc

Of course, if you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to contact the Libraries Help Desk at 970-491-1841 or contact Louise at Louise.Feldmann@colostate.edu

Please come by and visit Morgan Library. We are still remodeling, and will be for the next year, but we are open and have some fabulous new spaces and furniture.

So, if you've been over to the library lately or have looked in the library catalog, you may have noticed that the location of collections have moved or are in what's called "closed stacks." Essentially some call number ranges have been either temporarily relocated or are only accessible via staff during portions of our construction project. Here is an explanation of how to retrieve items that are in "closed stacks" http://lib.colostate.edu/access/closedstacks

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact myself at 970-491-4262 or the Libraries Help Desk (they have the most up-to-date informaiton on collections) at 970-491-1841.

If you've been over to Morgan Library this week, you'll notice (or hear) the increased construction activity. Portions of the building are blocked off and collections have moved in some places. If you have any questions about locating items or finding a space to study, please stop by the Help Desk.

The good news... the Morgan Grind, our internet cafe, will open just after spring break.

Also, after spring break, there will be a new temporary entrance, just to the left, of the current entrance. Signage will direct you.

Enjoy Spring Break!
