New Resource for State employees!

To contact us Click HERE
The Alaska State Library is using a new tool in our continuing efforts to improve online access to library materials for State employees: the confluence wiki. What's that, you say? Well, to most of you it will look pretty much like a regular webpage. The key difference is that because we can limit who can access the pages, we can post passwords and other access information for some resources that we previously were unable to make available outside of the library.

To see this new page, go to https://wiki.state.ak.us/display/publib/For+State+Employees from your work computer within the State of Alaska network. This page is not accessible outside of the State of Alaska network.

You may notice that this page looks similar to the For State Employees page on our website. Just click on the link "Access information for special resources." There you'll find terms of use and/or access information for:

• EAP Digest
• Phi Delta Kappan
• State and Local Government Review
• American Indian Quarterly
• Ecologist
• Energy and Buildings
• Environmental Management
• Government Information Quarterly
• Journal of Collective Negotiations
• Journal of Wildlife Management
• Marine Pollution Bulletin
• Nature
• Scientific American
• Western Historical Quarterly
• Wildlife Monographs

Or, easier yet, just use our Journal Finder. Where appropriate, links have been included to direct you to this information.

We're considering other options that will allow us to use this tool to make more resources available. For some, authentication might be necessary, in which case you would just sign into confluence in the same way that you log into your State email account.
