The following guides are designed to offer online assistance to some of the software and technology the HJF Library and Morningside offer students, faculty & staff. Please be advised, with the pace at which technology changes and software updates are issued, these guides can have incorrect information that is out of date.
The HJF's most popular databases are covered with a number of videos and guides dedicated to those specific databases. Learn about each database listed, from basic to advanced, to supercharge your research.
Google Scholar has a number of features to assist in research. This short guide will go through a few of these as well as show you how to connect the HJF's content to Scholar for when you are not on the campus network.
Lean Library is a browser extension that works with our Morningside University library systems to give you seamless access to content even if you're not using one of our databases. Just install it to your browser and log in to the library using your Morningside credentials. Lean Library also provides direct scite and Zotero integration so no need to download additional browser plugins.
scite is an award-winning platform for discovering and evaluating scientific articles via Smart Citations. Smart Citations allow users to see how a publication has been cited by providing the context of the citation and a classification describing whether it provides supporting or contrasting evidence for the cited claim. Use your Morningside email when creating an account.
Zotero is a free and open source citation manager. It is the only one that the HJF Learning Center supports at this time because of its versatility, robust features, and numerous supported styles. Zotero provides plugins for both Microsoft Office's Word, LibreOffice's Writer, and Google Drive Documents allowing for direct searching and importing of source citations all in the style of your choice. It also includes an automatic bibliography, references, and/or works cited page at the end of your document that is generated from the sources used in the rest of the document.
