- Changes to OneSearch Results
December 24, 2023 During the winter break, the UHM Library made a change to how OneSearch delivers search results to you. We changed the search results from its current "Expanded" mode to a more refined "Filtered" mode. For those who prefer the Expanded Search, the Filtered Search results can be changed to Expanded by clicking the "Expand My Results" toggle that will appear at the top of the search results on a desktop or laptop screen, or at the top of the Filter options when you click the Filter icon (shaped like a funnel). This change will only affect the "Everything" search scope, which is the default search scope. Searches using the "UHM Library" or "All UH Libraries" search scopes will be unaffected.
- World Digital Preservation Day
October 30, 2023 The library invites you to join us in commemorating World Digital Preservation Day (WDPD) on November 2, 2023. The purpose of this day is to “create greater awareness of digital preservation” and the benefits and opportunities of “securing a sustainable future for our digital assets.” It is an annual event organized by the Digital Preservation Coalition https://www.dpconline.org/
