As mobile devices have become the primary means of Internet access for more and more of our users, we have been busy designing a robust version of our Web site optimized for the small screens of smartphones. On-the-go users can now:

• Search for books, videos, maps, and music, and more using the library catalog.
• Find magazine and journal articles using library databases.
• E-mail citations of the resources you find.
• Browse for article databases that have mobile interfaces.
• Check library building and collection hours.
• Contact librarians by e-mail or phone.
• Look up when your checked out items are due.

The first time you browse to www.lib.umn.edu from your handheld device, you will be given the option to automatically be sent to the mobile site for all future visits. Those without Internet-enabled phones can view the mobile site from any computer at www.lib.umn.edu/mobile/.
