Thanks to a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services administered through the Missouri State Library, three historical Phelps County newspapers--Phelps County New Era (1875-1880), The Rolla Express (1860-1873), and The Rolla New Era (1880-1897)--have been digitized as part of the Missouri Historical Newspapers Project. You can browse or search the newspapers at http://newspapers.umsystem.edu/. If you have questions or comments, please contact Mary Aycock at aycockm@umr.edu.

Normal OVID Access has now been restored. We apologize for the interruption.

This morning, the MERLIN gateway machine went down at the system level and access to OVID databases has been affected. If you are needing to use an OVID database in the meantime, please use the following link:

http://gateway.ovid.com/

There is a login/password. This is NOT needed. Simply click "START OVID" to be presented with a list of OVID databases that UMR subscribes to.

We will post to the library blog again when this situtation is corrected.

Thank you for your patience.
