The Library 4th Floor will be closed until September 13th while new carpet is being installed. If you need something from the Government Document, Juvenile, Curriculum, or Map Collection, please ask at the Circulation desk and we will try and retrieve it for you. Please be aware however that items may not be available if the carpet installers are working in that area at the time of your request.
We are sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.

You pose questions to yourself on a daily basis -- do I trust this website enough to cite it in my paper? What was that recent privacy thing involving the Facebook news feed? Does the library have any new books in my major, and how late are they open today?
