Beyond the strength of our print collections, excellent service, superb staff, and fabulous facility, the Xavier University Library is making improvements to its digital resources in order to keep you connected to information and knowledge 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When browsing our database pages you will find that some of our electronic resources have been removed while others have been added. One new and noteworthy addition is Literati by Credo (also known as Credo Reference). This impressive search tool not only finds full-text articles but also searches images, creates mind maps and links you back to materials available in XACweb.
We invite you to visit our library in person as well as through our website. Some of our electronic resources, such as IEEE, can only be accessed here on campus. While browsing through our Databases A-Z as well as our Databases by Subject links you can watch this work in progress unfold. We are always looking for ways to improve the Xavier Library, and welcome your comments and suggestions. I hope you will use our rich resources and expertise—any time and any place!
