...auf Wiedersehen, good bye!

Ken Garson, Head of Access Services, has retired after many years of faithful service. We are grateful to Ken for all he has done during his time at the Drexel University Libraries. Starting off as an assistant in the Information Services department while going to library school and later becoming the Library and Information Sciences Librarian before moving on to Head of Access Services, Ken has been an invaluable member of the Drexel team.

Ken's hard work and determination has been a great influence here at Drexel, and he will be greatly missed by all his colleagues. Ken, we wish you a happy retirement!

Now that our DVD collection has grown (more than 1,000 DVDs in the Leisure Collection) Hagerty Library has increased the borrowing limit for DVDs from 2 at a time to 3. You can also keep the DVDs for 5 days.

Enjoy -- but don't forget to save some time for studying!

Found the perfect book in the catalog but don't want to write down the call number? Now, you don't need to!

You can send a text message to yourself from the catalog. Find a book or DVD in the catalog, and simply click the "Send via Text Message" link. You'll receive a text message containing the title and call number.

The Bookmark Café will be open the same hours as Hagerty Library for the Summer Term. That means no more 24/7 access until the Fall Term. But that's ok--this gives you more time to enjoy the beautiful summer nights! See the full schedule here: http://www.library.drexel.edu/about/hours/hours-wwh.html.

Looking for a late-night cup of joe? The Café food service will be available from 3:00 pm until 10:00 pm Monday through Friday.

We hope you enjoy this wonderful space!

To L01, of course!

While our classrooms in the lower level are being renovated, we have relocated 14 computers to Room L01 (the glassed-in room at the bottom of the stairs in the lower level). There are also two flat-bed scanners available for use.

Renovations to the classrooms in the lower level should be completed by the start of the Fall Term. In the meantime, enjoy L01!
