Artwork Brochure

There is a new brochure and handout detailing the MMA artwork that we have on permanent loan. They are in the pamphlet display holder by the Reference Desk, close to the top.

Let me know what you think. I have just printed a few until we see how popular they are going to be.

CQ Researcher

The web interface for CQ Researcher has had a face lift. Check it out. Also, CQ Press is launching a new product called CQ Global Researcher. It is just like the regular version except it offers reports on international topics. Is anyone interested? You can read the Choice review (in the Choice Reviews Online) by searching on the Choice Review # 45-1213. Let me know what you think of it. Thanks.

The Visitor Card

The copy/print card is missing from the Reference desk. Does anyone have it?

PHAROS Print Stations

Today the 2 print stations on the 1st floor and the one in Ref. were not working. They took people's money off their cards, said they printed on the screen, and then no paper would come out of the printers. If this happens again, just turn them off and on. It fixes the problem, according to Scott Johnson at IT. (Wish I had known that sooner!)

I have updated the link into the Herald-Leader in NewsBank. Previously there was an extra page to click through. Now you go directly into the search.

Starting today members of the Tenure Committee will be stopping at the Ref Desk to gain access to Seminar A and the study carrels containing the portfolios.

Please carefully review the Procedure for Tenure Committee's Use of Seminar A. It is in the left-side drawer of the Ref Desk in the envelope labeled 'Tenure Committee'. It has also been distributed via e-mail.

Key #2

I have fashioned a key chain, for the new interior key for student use, that should make it difficult for somebody to absent-mindedly pocket it (assuming that that is what happened to key #1). It is now in the drawer. Any student using it should understand that if this one disappears there probably will not be a replacement.
