Reserves/ILL update
FYI...At the end of our first week of the semester, we have already created and updated 329 course reserve pages for our students and faculty. I don't have exact numbers for ILL at this time, however, I do know that we have been extremely busy in that area as well. I would like to acknowledge the hard work and thank all of the staff and students in the Reserve/ILL area. They have all really pitched in to get the work done.
I would like to thank my staff and students in the circulation area as well. I know they also have been pretty busy this week.
