Fogler Library on the Move

Fogler Library is on the move! We spent the summer making changes and improvements to the Library, many of them in response students' suggestions. Here’s some of what to look for on your next visit:
Media Resource Center – The Media Resource Center has moved to the first floor and merged with our Circulation department. This offers users a single service point for checking out materials. A new office area for Circulation staff has been added at the north end of the Reserve Reading Room. More seating and study tables have been added to the area on the second floor vacated by the Center.

Popular Reading Area – A new Popular Reading area has been created at the south end of the Reserve Reading Room. Our popular reading Baker and Taylor books and our Detective fiction collection (formerly shelved in the Oakes Room) have been moved to the first range of shelves as you enter the room from the Info Commons. More seating will be added over the summer.

Periodicals – Social Science and Humanities current print periodicals shelved in the Reserve Reading Room on the first floor have moved to the President’s Room on the second floor and merged with the Science and Engineering periodicals. All the journals are shelved in a single alphabetical order.

Learning Material Center – The Learning Materials Center is now the Learning Materials Collection. Materials will remain in the same area and are open for browsing and check out. However, there is no longer a service desk . For reference assistance, contact the Reference Desk at (581-1673).
 For other general questions, contact the Circulation dept (581-1666).
If you have questions or would liek more information about the changes, please contact Gretchen Gfeller. Voice: 581-1696.
