ILL Books are Moving!

Beginning Wednesday, January 10, 2007, ILL books can be picked up at the main circulation desk located on the 2nd floor of Malpass Library. Books will be available for pickup any time the library is open. Books may also be returned to the main circulation desk (please do not return books in the drop box).

You may still stop by the ILL office with returns, any other questions, or concerns you have about our service. Beginning Tuesday, January 16, 2007, our hours will be 8:00 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday.

We hope this change will make ILL service more convenient for our patrons.

Happy Holidays!

The ILL department will be closed December 22nd through Janurary 2.

We will close at 5 p.m. Friday, December 22 and reopen Wednesday at 8 a.m. Janurary 3rd. 2007.

A few changes will begin to take place in the first few months of 2007 . Your items will be at the circualtion desk for pick-up.

We will begin implementation of Illiad for our lending of materials to other libraries.

Thank you for your patronage in 2006. We look forward to serving you in the New Year.

Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!!!!!!!!

ILL Changes in the New Year

Beginning with the Spring 2007 semester, Interlibrary Loan materials will be available for pickup at the main Circulation Desk instead of the ILL office. The main circulation desk is located on the 2nd floor of Malpass Library. Your materials will now be available any time the library is open, and you will not have to call to make after hours pickup arrangements. We hope this change will make ILL service more convenient to all our patrons.

When this change occurs, ILL office hours will change to 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday.

We also invite you to stop by Malpass Library Atrium on Sunday, December 10 beginning at 8:00 PM for cookies. This is the library staff's way of thanking you for your patronage and to wish all students good luck on their finals.

Have a safe and happy winter break and we will see you next semester!
