Don't be Afraid to AskUs

Upgrades in the Link

As part of renovation and enhanced services, the old help desks in the Link are being replaced with new, cool furniture. During break (Oct. 21-22), the current counter and desk will be removed. The new furniture, which arrives in November, will be more mobile, approachable and functional for working with students.
Until November and the new furniture arrives, Libraries staff will be using some of the Talk Zone furniture.
Below is a photo of the type of new furniture that will arrive in November.

The Stairs through a Window

The construction in new study area in Love South -- called the Mezzanine Room -- got an addition yesterday with a concrete stairwell that had to be lifted with a crane and taken into the 2nd floor room through the window.  Not many people were around to see it happen, so we took some photos to record the event.

Happenings in the Engineering Library

The Engineering library is full of many perks.  Today marked the highly anticipated return of free, freshly made popcorn on Wednesdays.  They also offer free BYOM (bring your own mug) coffee in the mornings Monday-Friday.  But that’s not all, the engineering library’s microwave is also back in business. 

Besides going there for just the free popcorn and coffee, you can sit down and study in their three new study rooms that are now open north of the library.  They are open on a first come, first serve basis.

Lastly, the clutter in the Engineering library is finally going to be put away.  Their new Library Services desk has been installed and will soon be put to use.  This means that everything will finally be put back in to its rightful place and that we will see the engineering library back in order soon.

Media Services Construction Continues

Media Services has been changing.  With a new location and many additions, it has been upgraded!  

Even though they are going through construction,  Media Services is still open to checkout study rooms, films, camera's, play games and so much more. 

This is an update of Media Services as of September 24, 2013.

This is an update of the room as of September 24, 2013.
