Suggestion Box - We listen!

The Saturday hours in the E&A Library are too short.

We try to schedule Library hours to meet the demand. The demand on weekends is for Sunday hours and so the E & A Library is open from 1PM - 10PM on Sundays.

Why are there so many 2 hour loan books in the Engineering & Architecture Library?

This is an issue the Library staff at the E&A Library are pondering. There are books on course reserve which are two hour loan because the professor has requested it. You can tell these books becuase that have the professor's name on the spine label. Some books are noted as 2 hour loan becuase they are heavily used for projects during the semester. The 2 hour loan period is thought to be long enough to get the book to the Architecture building to scan as needed and then return it to the E&A Library.

In the Spring 2010 semester the E&A library staff will be changing many of the 2 hour loan books to 3 day loans for student convenience. Please be patient while we undergo this project. You can always state your case to a full-time E&A library staff member about why you need the book longer. We will work with you to provide the resouces you need.
