Starting tomorrow, we'll be staffing the Information Point kiosk while Library West is closed to patrons for repairs. There are a few changes from the prior plan, the main one being that instead of the kiosk being right outside of West, we'll be inside Library East. I think this will be much more comfortable for everyone! It's just been so brutally hot lately.

As far as procedures and policies go, Ben Walker will be sending out an email with details soon.

I wanted to make sure you all know what lines of communication you will have available when staffing this kiosk:

You will have a walkie talkie with circulation staff on the other end at all times. The signal isn't great in East, so you may have to move closer to the door if you can't hear.

You will be able to email the Access Services Dept email address. This email address will go to all the Access Services staff (including ILL, EReserves, Stacks and ALF) so you'll definitely hear back from someone immediately.

We HOPE you'll also have a wireless phone available to call the main Access Services number 3-2525. We'll know more about whether they have the phone ready soon.

Keep and eye out for Ben's email about how we'll handle ILL pickups and the in-library use only items, reserves drop-offs, ILL drop-offs, Hold pickups (from storage and from West), and requests for unavailable materials in West (including current periodicals, reference, DVDs and Videos).

One more thing, as some of you know the IB students are hear doing research. The West books they are working with, or that they request from West, will all be moved over to Marston Science Library. So any IB student looking for their books will need to head over to MSL.

Any questions can be referred directly to me, Ben or emailed to the Access Services Dept email list.

Side note: You'll notice the Meebo Room on the right side of the blog. We were testing this as another avenue of communication. It's public though, and so we couldn't rely on it if we had to discuss patron or other sensitive information. Feel free to play with it though!

"So suck it up and skip '80s night in favor of Club West."

Prior to the construction of Robert Mills’ Washington Monument in 1833, proposals to erect a memorial in honor of George Washington began as early as 1783. The defeat of the British under his command and his consecutive time as the first President of the United States had thrust Washington into the public’s mind as an...

Corona lockdown has put entire mango trade in West Bengal under deep uncertainty. The debacle is bound to cause severe economic crisis in the Mango zone of the state. West Bengal is one of the largest contributors to India's national mango output that constitutes around 40% of global yield.

Rice exports to Bangladesh through West Bengal will likely begin soon as the ministry of home affairs (MHA) has taken a tough stand against the state government for not allowing border trade with India's eastern neighbour.
