The Reference Section of Irwin Library will no longer be making printed forms available for filing income taxes. Instead, we encourage you to download the forms and booklets you need and to print out the forms that you need to mail in.
Websites for the necessary forms are:
There is also a website, through Access Indiana, where you can file your state taxes online for free. It’s at http://www.in.gov/ai/appfiles/i-file/index.html. Be sure to read the “View Requirements” to make sure you meet the technological and residential requirements.
Note: Neither Irwin Library nor any of the librarians can offer legal advice or counsel. Please seek appropriate legal tax counsel if needed.
The New York Times (Historical) database is now available via ProQuest.

December 31, 2002. The collection includes digital reproductions
providing access to every page from every available issue.
You can get to this database through our list of Indexes and Databases.

For those of you who have waited for a computer in the libraries
because they were all being used, the solution has arrived: More
Computers.
There are now 6 more lab computers in Irwin Library and 2 more in the
Ruth Lilly Science Library. At Irwin, we have spread them throughout
the building. Here are the locations:
- One more in the Music & Fine Arts Reference area.
- One in the basement by the newspapers.
- One on the second floor in the A-D section.
- One on the second floor in the E-HJ section.
- One on the second floor in the M-N section.
- One on the third floor in the P-PR section.
We hope this better facilitates your computer usage both as individuals and as groups.
The Butler University Libraries’ weblog, DawgBlog, has been moved to a
new website. Our old blog host decided to “go commerical” and the
result was an unacceptable change in how our blog looked and functioned
and even how our blog posts looked. We have moved to CommunityServer,
which is hosted locally, so we no longer have to concern ourselves with
advertising or unwanted popups.
As the already existing posts were imported, we lost the authors
attached to the invdividual posts, so I have added their names to ends
of the posts, lest our readers think they were really all written by
one person.
It is our hope that the new site will offer our readers greater
stability and usability as we continue to improve our communication.
Thank you for your patience and for finding your way here to this new site.

Reference Librarian
Would you like to find out what books have recently been added to the library catalog at Butler? Visit the library home page and click on “New Titles in our Catalog.”
You can enter search terms like a word in the title or the author’s
first or last name, or even part of the LC call number, and you can
sort by a variety of categories. For instance, a search term of ML will
give you all the literature on music that we’ve gotten in the last X
months.
As of now, wildcards (such as * or ?) are unavailable when searching
for new materials in the library, but if you just enter part of the
author’s name or a word from the title, it will display every record
that contains that fragment. Examples: the term “market” gives us
marketing, marketplace, etc.; “smi” yields authors with the name smith
or smit, or titles with the word blacksmith or dismiss.
