The UC Merced Library is displaying an exhibit called Be Aware: Elevate Your News Evaluation on the 2nd floor.
The exhibit has both physical and digital components. Librarians were inspired to create an exhibit after viewing a graphic on social media that placed news sources on a graph, with both X and Y axes, to show quality and bias. The legitimacy of news continues to be a hot topic in 2017. As news consumers, the onus is ultimately on us to seek out accurate news reporting and to be aware of multiple perspectives.
Through the exhibit, we aim to generate conversation about news sources and news evaluation. We hope our viewers will:
Follow us on social media for more content related to the exhibit.
EBL eBook links are currently not accessible. We apologize for this inconvenience and hope access will be restored shortly.
The Library has received a gift of 2,200 books from the personal library of Keith L. Nelson, emeritus professor of history at UC Irvine. The books are mainly about American and European history with a focus on international relations, arms control and globalization. The donated books are being cataloged and added to the library’s collection.

Recently, Oxford University Press began transitioning all OUP Journals to the new Oxford Academic platform; on February 1st that all journal content migration was complete. In addition to journals, Oxford Academic will eventually house the majority of Oxford’s digital book and online product content.
CDL has identified two display issues which do not limit access to the content, but may cause user confusion and is working with Oxford to resolve these issues. First, site branding may cycle through different wording for an individual campus. While navigating or refreshing pages, users may see the site branding text change in the upper right corner. This is due to campuses having multiple administrative accounts on the platform that have differing account names. Secondly, access icons for subscribed content may display incorrectly as a shopping cart though the article is available. Should users encounter a shopping cart icon when browsing subscribed content, clicking “View Article” should still provide access. Note: Only UC- licensed content is still accessible. Shopping cart icons on content that UC does not subscribe to correctly indicates unavailability.
Notwithstanding these issues that are being investigated, the new platform has enhanced features such as device-agnostic design, more browse options and improved results list filters. For more information, visit the Oxford Academic FAQ page.

The main reason Merced was chosen as one of the pilot counties was because of its importance to the San Joaquin Valley and to California agriculture. Additionally, Merced County Cooperative Extension has the added benefit of being close to UC Merced, which has allowed me to become familiar with Cooperative Extension and their records without having to travel far.
