Get Ready...

Before you continue check the requirements below. If you have any technical problems, call the Office of Information Technology Help Desk at (413) 796-2200 or talk to one of the D'Amour librarians.

1. Browser

You'll need at least Firefox 1.0, Netscape 4.0, or Internet Explorer 4.0 to use Searchpath. To check what version you are currently using and to download software updates (if necessary), you can go to the Mozilla Firefox, Netscape, or Microsoft (Internet Explorer) site.

2. Plug-ins

To experience all the effects, you'll need the Shockwave Flash plug-in, a free application that enhances your browser and makes this site interactive. If you can see the animation below,

you already have the plug-in. If you're using Internet Explorer, you may see a yellow security bar at the top of the screen; click this bar to allow Flash to run. Or, if you can't see anything, you may go to the Macromedia Flash Player Download Center to download the free program. Or, you can click on Non-Flash Version whenever you get to a Flash page.
