Printing from your laptop

Printing from your laptop is now possible at any of the UT Libraries. Please visit http://www.lib.utexas.edu/services/computing/ and install the appropriate client.

Once the client is installed a printer named “library_printers” will appear, choose that printer and name your print job. Once you’ve sent a print job it goes to the printers in all of the University libraries and remains in the printer queue for two hours. You may send a job from anywhere on campus while using the “restricted.utexas.edu” wireless connection and choose the most convenient library to retrieve your job.

Paying for printing with Bevo Bucks is now an option at PCL.

The American Society of Cell Biology’s Image & Video Library

ASCB Launches Cell Biology Image & Video Library

The American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB) now offers a source for peer-reviewed, high-quality visual and written resources from cell biology innovators: the newly launched ASCB Image & Video Library (IVL), available at http://cellimages.ascb.org. All IVL items undergo a rigorous review process similar to reviews performed by journals. As a result, users of IVL resources can be confident of the authenticity and importance to cell biology of the images, videos, digital books, and annotations on the website. Many IVL resources have profound historical value; others represent current depictions of myriad cell processes.

The IVL contains digital books in PDF format, JPEG2000 images, and videos in QuickTime format. The annotations provide a rich source of information that can be used as teaching and/or study aids. And the IVL supports the Open Access concept: All resources are freely available for educational and research purposes.

Free and convenient patent printing

Printing patents from the US or European websites can be frustrating and time-consuming. If you already have the number of the patent you'd like to print, print2pdf.org quickly produces a free, easily printable pdf of patents. Unfortunately, this service is only available for US patents, and you can't search patents from the site, but the convenience it offers for printing makes it a great tool.

If you'd like to use print2pdf, make sure you link to ".org" and not ".com" – while the commercial site may be helpful for those willing to pay to for a better patent searching interface, it's not free.

Electrochemical Society’s Digital Library

The Electrochemical Society is pleased to announce the opening of the ECS Digital Library (ECS DL), the first step toward making all ECS content available all the time, in one seamless resource.

While the ECS Digital Library is still in development, users can now search across both peer-reviewed ECS journals, Journal of The Electrochemical Society (JES) and the rapid-publication Electrochemical and Solid-State Letters, as well as Meeting Abstracts. The journals are the leaders in the field (according to the ISI Science Citation Index) and the extended Meeting Abstracts gives scientists a first look into current research.
