From the Suggestion Box: Suggestion Box: Staff Directory

It’s impossible to find information on the library staff- who works on what, how to contact them, etc… It would be great for staff bios and information to be searchable and accessible. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have put a link to the staff directory on the ZSR home page and... Continue reading “From the Suggestion Box: Suggestion Box: Staff Directory”

From the Suggestion Box: Another Book Suggestion

I think a lot of students go to these landings assuming that they are getting away from quiet study spaces, like gov docs or the history...

The inconvenient floor plugs are few in number (requiring power cord rental) and awkward to access. I recommend installing power strips on each table (leg, edge, underneath, etc) that could then be plugged into... Continue reading “From the Suggestion Box: Power in the Atrium”

From the Suggestion Box: Puzzles from the Library

I suggest that students should be able to borrow puzzles from the library. That is an intriguing idea and we thought about it hard. We are going to decline at this point because it would be difficult to check for all the pieces when they came back. And we thought about having a community puzzle...
