If you provide links to journal articles, you’ll need to change your URLs after this semester.
If you are re-using links next semester, you’ll need to edit any links that use mulibraries.1cate.com as part of the URL. Find and replace mulibraries.1cate.com with finditatmu.library.missouri.edu .

For example,
http://mulibraries.1cate.com/?genre=article&volume=22&issue=3&spage=416&date=2012&title=qualitative+health+research

becomes

http://finditatmu.library.missouri.edu/?genre=article&volume=22&issue=3&spage=416&date=2012&title=qualitative+health+research

The old links you’re using now should continue to work for the rest of the semester, but after that, they will stop working.

Starting now, you can create links in the new Findit@MU Article Finder by clicking “Get Short URL” on the article finder page as shown here.

The MU Libraries have contracted with Serials Solutions to utilize 360 Link for the “Find It @ MU” service.

It will continue to allow researchers searching within databases to easily check for the availability of the specific material they need and to link directly to the full-text when it is available online.

Researchers will also still be able to search for specific citations and journal titles.

The changes will be implemented in the various databases, websites, etc., over the coming days.  The  button will remain the same.

If you have any questions, please contact us or report problems using the  “Report Problems” button that displays on the page.

“poems that stick with you like a song that won’t stop repeating itself in your brain, poems whose cadences burrow into your bloodstream, orchestrating your breathing long before their sense attaches its hooks to your heart.”

Reception
5:30-6:30 p.m.
Berlin Theatre

Performance of Mama’s Kitchen
6:30-7:00 p.m.
Berlin Theatre

Mama’s Kitchen is a short play by Teresa Stankiewicz based on the memoir Bread on the Water: the Olden Times by Antonia Baquet.  Growing up during the Great Depression Nootsie lives with her mother Regina while serving in the house of the “Rice King of the South” in Crowley, Louisiana.   The memoirs of Toi Derricotte’s mother take us through a journey of strength and love of the African Americans who served the rich white families in the American south.  This brief glimpse into the lives of three women shows us the love, laughter and hardship that all of them rose above.

We learn the painful lessons of history in our parents’ beds.  I believe we are sent out on their mission; their un-spoken dreams, the true self that was neglected and even buried because it was a miracle if they just survived to make the lives of their children better.  These are the words that came through my mother and the poems that come through me today.
–Toi Derricotte

Where Did We Come From?
New Insights into Our Oldest Ancestors

Perhaps no subject fascinates us more than the mystery of our origins and evolution. Teams of scientists working throughout the world are recovering record numbers of fossils of our earliest ancestors, and these fossils are expanding and refining the picture we have of how we evolved.

Dr. Carol Ward has been involved with the discovery and analysis of many of these fossils, and will present some of the more exciting ones.  She will share how these fossils speak to scientists through their anatomy and biology, and how they reveal to us that our evolutionary history was more complex and nuanced than we have imagined.
