Newell believes the Ombuds Office Resource Guide is unique.
"Many other ombuds officers around the country have resources included on their websites," she said. "But as far as I can tell, Iowa State is the first ombuds office to partner with the library and use this software to provide self-help information for people who are trying to deal with conflict.
"I'm always happy to work with people in a face-to-face meeting," she added, "but for those who'd rather try to work out their own conflicts, this guide may give them just what they need."
