Come join students, faculty, and
staff in viewing a photo exhibit celebrating the 2008 GALA program at Irwin
Library this Thursday. An opening reception for this photo exhibit is being
held on Thursday, September 4 at 7:30 in the Browsing Room, 1st
floor, of Irwin Library. Jason Goldsmith, a faculty sponsor with the program,
organized the exhibit, which provides “19 ways of looking at Britain’s Lake
District” based on student photographs. Come and view the thought-provoking and
artistic photos the students took during this trip! Light refreshments will be
served.

the Dean, College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, Butler

The computer in Reference that has the scanner attached is DOWN. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Apparently the problems that showed up during the summer are still reoccurring. We just might have to get a whole new machine. For the near future, the machine is unavailable and so is the scanner. I’ll pass along updates as I get them.
Classes begin tomorrow (Wed., August 27) and so do On-Call Reference Services. This week we’ll just be working the desk from Noon to 5:00pm. If you’re scheduled for any part of 12:00-5:00 the rest of this week, please be available by phone and/or I.M.
The regular full Reference Desk and On-Call Schedule will begin next Tuesday, September 2, at 10:00am and the official schedule is on the Reference Desk Calendar on Outlook and on BUFiles at G:\Departments\Reference\FALL 2008 On-Call Schedule.xls.
We’ll work the process of requesting subs the same way as we did for working at the Desk. Just email the Reference Desk listserv (lib-rd@listserv.butler.edu) and ask. Once someone has switched or taken your hours, please make sure that the Reference Desk Calendar (on Outlook) is updated for your shift, from something like “Scott” to something like “Brad for Scott.”
If you have any problems with the Reference Desk Calendar on Outlook (it’s one of the Public Calendars like our Personnel Calendar), please let Scott know.
Thanks.
Scott
It was a success! At today’s New Student Library Open House, we had around 50 students volunteer to have their picture taken for the Libraries’ Facebook site to help spread the word about Butler Libraries’ services. Check out the ‘Got Library Information’
photo album on the Butler Libraries facebook site (www.facebook.com) to check out how they are helping to spread the word about the Libraries’ services…. Or, do you see yourself? Tag yourself so some of your new Butler
friends can see what we have to offer too!
Thank
you to those of you who volunteered. Butler students are great! -Sally Neal,
Assistant Dean for Public Services, Butler Libraries
