Why does my library account say that I am blocked, that I am barred, or that my status is expired?
Users can encounter several different types of status messages. Patrons with questions about their account status can visit the checkout desk in room 241 of LSU Library and ask to speak to a staff member. Alternatively, patrons can reach out to us via e-mail at libcirc@lsu.edu (mailto:libcirc@lsu.edu) . When contacting us via e-mail, LSU students, staff, and faculty should message us from their LSU e-mail address; public patrons should message us from the e-mail address we have on file. For privacy reasons, we cannot discuss the details of patron accounts over the telephone. Expired: Students must be currently enrolled in classes in order to be granted library privileges. Once they graduate, or if they fail to register on time in accord with the deadlines posted on LSUs academic calendar, their privileges expire. If they try to log in to their library account after that date, they will see an alert message informing them that their account has expired. Graduate students who have received a masters degree but are continuing on to get their PhD may also have their privileges expire earlier than expected. The library receives weekly updates on student status from the Registrars Office. Once the semester has begun, if students register during the week, their accounts will not be updated and their privileges extended in the system until the following Monday morning. Blocked: Users with overdue recalled books will have their accounts blocked by the system. Their accounts will remain blocked until the book is returned. The system will not permit staff members to override blocks or to renew books that have been recalled. The only way to remove a block from an account is to return the materials. Barred: Users can be barred from using library materials for a number of reasons, the most common being that they have been billed for lost items. They can also be barred if they resign from the university, if their classes are purged, or for flagrant violations of library policy. If they try to log into their account after they have been barred, they will receive an alert message that tells them that they have been barred. Answered by: Access Services Staff

Literary Manuscripts: Berg
The Berg Collection is recognised as one of the finest literary research collections in the world, and the Victorian holdings are the undisputed jewel in its crown. A broad range of authors from across the nineteenth century make this an essential research tool for all scholars and students researching Victorian literature. Most of these unique manuscripts are unavailable in any medium elsewhere. They are supplemented by some rare printed materials, including early editions annotated by the authors. Each author collection is included in its entirety, allowing users to browse and search the manuscripts as they would in the Berg Reading Room.
Literary Manuscripts: Leeds
This path-breaking project offers literary scholars the opportunity to examine complete facsimile images of 190 manuscripts of 17th and 18th century verse held in the celebrated Brotherton Collection at the University of Leeds. These manuscripts can be read and explored in conjunction with the powerful BCMSV database, described in a recent survey of first-line indices for poetry of the long eighteenth century (c.1660-1830) as "the most sophisticated and flexible index yet created for a collection of manuscript poetry".¹ The database includes first lines, last lines, attribution, author, title, date, length, verse form, content and bibliographic references for over 6,600 poems within the collection.
London Low Life
London Low Life is a full-text searchable resource, containing colour digital images of rare books, ephemera, maps and other materials relating to 18th, 19th and early 20th century London. It is designed for both teaching and study, from undergraduate to research students and beyond. In addition to the digital documents, London Low Life contains a wealth of secondary resources, including a chronology, interactive maps, essays, online galleries and links to other useful websites.
Macmillan Cabinet Papers, 1957-1963
Macmillan Cabinet Papers, 1957-1963 provides complete coverage of the Cabinet conclusions (minutes) (CAB 128) and memoranda (CAB 129) of Harold Macmillan’s government, plus selected minutes and memoranda of policy committees (CAB 134). The Cabinet conclusions are taken by the secretary of the Cabinet or one of their assistants and consist of summaries of all discussions in Cabinet, together with a note of decisions reached. Cabinet memoranda consist of all papers circulated to members of the Cabinet and to other ministers for information or as a basis for discussion. These classes provide a distillation of the work of all the other departments of government, ranging in subject matter from agricultural policy and trade to nuclear policy and issues of international diplomacy. This collection also includes 165 files from the Prime Minister's Private Office (PREM 11). These provide an important supplement to the Cabinet records and cover all aspects of policymaking.

The association between physical activity and depression among weekend catch-up sleepers: results from NHANES 2021–2023.
Background: Depression is a prevalent disorder with significant health impacts. Physical activity is known to protect against depression, but its effects may vary in populations with disrupted sleep patterns, such as weekend catch-up sleepers, which refers to participants who sleep longer on weekends than on weekdays. This study examines the dose-response relationship between physical activity and depression in this population. Methods: Data from 1,906 participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2021–2023) were analyzed. Physical activity was measured in MET-minutes per week, and depression was assessed using the PHQ-9. Multivariate linear regression, restricted cubic spline, and two-part linear regression models were employed. Results: In the adjusted model, physical activity showed a negative trend with depression, though this association did not reach statistical significance in the fully adjusted model. Stratified analyses revealed stronger associations in women (OR = 0.86, 95% CI: 0.75, 0.99, P = 0.0329) and individuals aged 40–60 years (OR = 0.79, 95% CI: 0.65, 0.97, P = 0.0237). A threshold effect was observed, with physical activity below 2.48 MET-min/1000-wk showing a negative association with depression (OR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.56, 0.85, P = 0.0006). Beyond this threshold, the relationship changed. Conclusion: A nonlinear relationship between physical activity and depression was identified in weekend catch-up sleepers, with moderate activity levels (2.48 MET-min/1000-wk) offering the greatest mental health benefits, particularly in women and individuals aged 40–60 years. Clinical trial number: Not applicable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
