This week has definitely shown the signs of school starting. Faculty are back and even some students are back. I am in the midst of trying to get caught up on my work before we get into the full swing of things. This year there are going to be a few changes that I hope will help students with getting information and with accessing the library.
The first change is that we have moved a few things around in the library. I have to admit I love rearranging things and this goes for at work, not just at home. We now have a "workroom" where the students can access their prints, make photocopies, punch holes, staple papers, etc. You will no longer have to go back and forth from room to room to get all of this done. I have also created some short tutorials on accessing and searching our databases. I am hoping to have these posted to our website probably at the beginning of September. Which brings me to another change, our website is being redesigned with what I think will help with a good user experience. And last but not least, we have a new evening person working. Kathy McGovern is our new Part Time Patron Services Assistant. For those of you who know Sharron, she resigned due to health issues. Kathy has taken her place and is doing wonderful. Kathy will be working Monday-Thursday 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
This fall semester is going to be busy but good. I am looking forward to everyone being back and getting back into the swing of things.
