Bento Search

Search all of LSU Libraries in one place. This includes the catalog, research guides, scholarly repository, website, etc.

What does bento search?

Bento searches all of the available resources at LSU Libraries. Please note that while Discovery does include Catalog results, the dedicated Catalog search can still be accessed.

Discovery
Searches our local print and electronic materials including e-books, journal articles, peer-reviewed articles, news, and magazines.
Research Guides
Searches the full-text of research guides published by LSU Libraries. A research guide is a curated, librarian‑built document that pulls together the most important resources for a topic, course, or assignment. It’s designed to help students, faculty, and researchers quickly find high‑quality, relevant information without having to sift through everything on their own.
Scholarly Repository
Searches the full-text of the Scholarly Repository. The LSU Scholarly Repository collects, preserves, publishes, and makes openly accessible the research and scholarship contributed by LSU faculty, staff, students, and units. Research and scholarly archived materials can include articles, monographs, books, theses & dissertations, audio-visual presentations, working papers, technical reports, conference proceedings, special collections, data, and publicly funded research.

Molecular Phylogeny of a Circum-Global, Diverse Gastropod Superfamily (Cerithioidea: Mollusca: Caenogastropoda): Pushing the Deepest Phylogenetic Limits of Mitochondrial LSU rDNA Sequences
The Cerithioidea is a very diverse group of gastropods with ca. 14 extant families and more than 200 genera occupying, and often dominating, marine, estuarine, and freshwater habitats. While the composition of Cerithioidea is now better understood due to recent anatomical and ultrastructural studies, the phylogenetic relationships among families remain chaotic. Morphology-based studies have provided conflicting views of relationships among families. We generated a phylogeny of cerithioideans based on mitochondrial large subunit rRNA and flanking tRNA gene sequences (total aligned data set 1873 bp). Nucleotide evidence and the presence of a unique pair of tRNA genes (i.e., threonine + glycine) between valine-mtLSU and the mtSSU rRNA gene support conclusions based on ultrastructural data that Vermetidae and Campanilidae are not Cerithioidea, certain anatomical similarities being due to convergent evolution. The molecular phylogeny shows support for the monophyly of the marine families Cerithiidea, Turritellidae, Batillariidae, Potamididae, and Scaliolidae as currently recognized. The phylogenetic data reveal that freshwater taxa evolved on three separate occasions; however, all three recognized freshwater families (Pleuroceridae, Melanopsidae, and Thiaridae) are polyphyletic. Mitochondrial rDNA sequences provide valuable data for testing the monophyly of cerithidaen families and relationships within families, but fail to provide strong evidence for resolving relationships among families. It appears that the deepest phylogenetic limits for resolving caenogastropod relationships is less than about 245–241 mya, based on estimates of divergence derived from the fossil record.

How do I access my library account online?
You can access your library account using the link below. Current LSU employees and students should login using their myLSU ID and password. Retirees should login using their LSU ID # (89 number) as their user ID and their library PIN. Public patrons should login using their account number. To find your public patron account number, please email us at libcirc@lsu.edu (mailto:libcirc@lsu.edu) . Click "I don't know my PIN" in order to have one sent to you if you don't remember it.

Do I need a library card to check out items?
LSU Library can only accept one form of ID as a patron's library card depending on their user status: - Current LSU faculty, staff, and students must use their TigerCard - Public patrons should use their state-issued ID (such as their drivers license) To check out books and other items, please present your TigerCard or state ID at the checkout desk in room 241 or use the self-checkout machine in room 141. There are no fees applied at the time of checkout.

Answered by: Access Services Staff
How can I use the display screen in my study room?
Study rooms are outfitted with a large display screen, which have HDMI and USB-C connectors that allow patrons to connect their personal devices. Screens in student meeting rooms are also connected to a PC. The checkout desk in room 241 circulates study room kits that include a remote for the display screens and a keyboard and mouse for the PCs. Please report any missing or damaged equipment to the checkout desk. Related: Does the library loan AV equipment, PC's, laptops, etc.? Answered by: Access Services Staff

Confidential Print: Africa, 1834-1966
The Confidential Print series, issued by the British Government between c. 1820 and 1970, is a fundamental building block for political, social and economic research. The documents in Confidential Print: Africa begin with coastal trading in the early nineteenth century and the Conference of Berlin of 1884 and the subsequent Scramble for Africa. They then follow the abuses of the Congo Free State, fights against tropical disease, Italy’s defeat by the Abyssinians, World War II, apartheid in South Africa and colonial moves towards independence. Together they cover the whole of the modern period of European colonisation of the continent from the British Government’s perspective.
Confidential Print: Latin America, 1833-1969
The Confidential Print series, issued by the British Government between c. 1820 and 1970, is a fundamental building block for political, social and economic research. This collection consists of the Confidential Print for Central and South America and the French- and Spanish-speaking Caribbean. Topics covered include slavery and the slave trade, immigration, relations with indigenous peoples, wars and territorial disputes, the fall of the Brazilian monarchy, British business and financial interests, industrial development, the building of the Panama Canal, and the rise to power of populist rulers such as Perón in Argentina and Vargas in Brazil.
Confidential Print: Middle East, 1839-1969
The Confidential Print series, issued by the British Government between c. 1820 and 1970, is a fundamental building block for political, social and economic research.This collection consists of the Confidential Print for the countries of the Levant and the Arabian peninsula, Iran, Turkey, Egypt and Sudan. Beginning with the Egyptian reforms of Muhammad Ali Pasha in the 1830s, the documents trace the events of the following 150 years, including the Middle East Conference of 1921, the mandates for Palestine and Mesopotamia, the partition of Palestine, the 1956 Suez Crisis and post-Suez Western foreign policy, and the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Confidential Print: North America, 1824-1961
The Confidential Print series, issued by the British Government between c. 1820 and 1970, is a fundamental building block for political, social and economic research. This collection consists of the Confidential Print for the United States, Canada and the English-speaking Caribbean, with some coverage of Central and South America, and covers such topics as slavery, Prohibition, the First and Second World Wars, racial segregation, territorial disputes, the League of Nations, McCarthyism and the nuclear bomb. The bulk of the material covers the late nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century.
