ILLiad Updates

illiad.jpgThe next time you submit an interlibrary loan request you will see that the ILLiad web pages have a new look. In addition to the changed appearance, the form includes several new features.

A search box at the top of the initial screen now allows you to search by keyword for any past request, regardless of whether it is a current, canceled, or completed request. Another nice option is the ability to undelete “electronically received articles” that you might have unintentionally deleted. You will notice several other changes. We hope you find them useful. Have fun exploring!

Three Little Kittens They Lost Their Mittens . . .

Have you lost your mittens? Or umbrella, or scarf, or notebook, or keys, or . . . .

Visit the lost and found display near the stairs on the main floor of Hagerty Library and reclaim your long-lost stuff! The circulation desks at each library hold lost items to be reunited with their owners.

Our lost-and-found display celebrates National Poetry Month, with Elizabeth Bishop’s “One Art”.

Emanuel Kelly, FAIA: West Philadelphia native, Drexel alum

Kelly_Emmanuel_000.jpg
Emanuel Kelly, FAIA, was raised in West Philadelphia and has been managing the design, documentation, and construction of architectural, urban design, and planning projects for thirty-six years. He graduated with a degree in architecture from Drexel University in 1971 and received his master’s degree in city planning and urban design from Harvard University in 1974. He returned to Philadelphia in 1976 and, along with Vincent Maiello, AIA, established the architectural and planning firm Kelly/Maiello, Inc.

The Drexel University Archives has created an online exhibit to honor the work of Drexel graduate Emanuel Kelly. This exhibit highlights just a few of the many projects completed by the Kelly/Maiello firm.

Questions or comments about this exhibit should be directed to the Drexel University Archives at archives@drexel.edu.
