ULM needs LOUIS

The ULM Library gets many of its resources with the cooperation of a library consortium called LOUIS. This provides such things as our databases, catalog, and interlibrary loan.

LOUIS has recently lost much of its funding from the state, which will have dire consequences for the near future. Here is a new library web page describing how ULM will be affected and how to help stop it:

You might also notice that some of our databases are now preceded by a warning page such as this:

Your access has not been affected yet. This is only meant to spread the word about the crisis.
