- Reminder - the Physics Library has binders for professors containing the papers he has written.
If you haven't sent your papers to the Library recently and would like me to keep a copy of them, please send
them and I will update your binder or start a new binder for you.
- Attention Spring Physics course instructors! Please
send me a list of books you would like placed on reserve. If you
are keeping the same books for spring that you used for fall, let
me know. You can use the Online Reserve
Request Form, send me an email, or put a note in my
mailbox. If you are making a web page for your class, you can
link your page to the class' reserve list after I put the books
on reserve. There is no need to retype them. Just ask me if you
have any questions.
