http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox Where your opinion matters. Tue, 10 Nov 2009 17:07:16 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en The literature reference section seems limited in relation to medicine; the greater portion is dedicated to Shakespeare! Thanks for this observation. If you are not finding what you’re looking for on the reference shelf, that doesn’t mean we don’t have it. We’ve got all kinds of literature reference resources that are ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1204 I have consistent issues with the quiet room in the basement of the library.  People answer their cell phones, listen to their head phones very loud, whisper, and even have full conversations.  I realize that college students should realize and respect what a quiet room is, but I was wondering ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1200 Now that we are renovating the library, it might be an appropriate time to clean the atrium skylights; they're pretty cruddy. Thanks for the suggestion. The skylights were cleaned last year during 3rd floor renovations, and they are regularly cleaned by Drexel’s facilities management. Most of the stuff you see on ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1190 There used to be a microwave in the Bookmarks Café. Now there is a Taco Bell. This is not an improvement. Please replace the microwave instead of inducing students to eat hyper-commercialized trash. Thanks very much for your suggestion. The microwave and Taco Bell are not mutually exclusive. It’s true that ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1177 We've received several comments about the Taco Bell in the café. Here are two of the latest: Why was a Taco Bell implemented in the Bookmark Café? Facilities do not take care of the mess caused by the customers. It’s no longer good for studying. Taco Bell was a bad idea. The ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1179 The entrance to the Taco Bell is an emergency exit only! While dining at Taco Bell at least three groups attempted to use those doors. It’s a giant inconvenience and I’m sure it causes Taco Bell to lose customers. Thanks for commenting. The outer doors to the café area are open ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1174 Perhaps have a separate section for newer movies that the library gets in stock? I get tired of going through the alphabet looking for new ones! Thanks for this great idea. We’re really cramped for space at the moment, so we can’t make a separate section for new DVDs, but we ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1171 Taco Bell is fantastic, but you need to sell coffee somewhere! We will perish during finals and midterms. Coffee and studying go together like rice and beans, and believe us, we agree that coffee’s important. There's a coffee machine in the vending machine area at the back of the café, and ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1161 Requests have been coming in to restore the microwave in the café. Here are the two latest: There used to be a microwave in the Cafe area, but we could not find it anymore. I understand Taco Bell will want students to purchase their food. However they open and close at ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1153 Since the reopening of the café several people have asked us about the procedures on entering and exiting from the main Hagerty building: The protocol when leaving the café is completely ridiculous. I do not want to be hassled by having to show my ID. The new policy of having to scan ... http://www.library.drexel.edu/blogs/thesuggestionbox/?p=1147
