Some Library Housekeeping…

A few announcements we haven’t really talked about on the Internet, but probably should have…

  • We’ve installed print management.  This is the end of free printing in the library in an effort to a) encourage you to get more green, b) get your professors to stop making you print so much, and c) collect some losses from non-students who take advantage of our services.  All enrolled students will have a generous number of free prints each semester. Feel free to talk to the reference desk or comment on it in the chat widget (to your right if you’re on our blog’s page.
  • The library catalog will be going down and coming back up a few times this week.  Our catalog’s server has what we’ll politely call “issues”.  Here’s an accurate depiction of our server right now:

Needless to say, we’re working on it.

  • Our very own Judi Guzzy is presenting at the KLA conference about her sabbatical project, which took a comprehensive look at the strengths and advantages of library consortia. We wish her luck!

That should cover it for now.  Here’s an inspirational librarian video.
