** News **

• The Physics Library will be closed on Friday, July 3, 2009.
  
  
• WUSTL Key - Between now and the beginning of the Fall Semester, most major Library systems will be changed to allow faculty and students to use their WUSTL Key and password for authentication/authorization. This will include our public computers, Millennium My Catalog, proxy services, ILLiad, ARes, and other systems. Because of the complexity of this transition, the changes will occur over a period of several weeks and some systems and applications will continue to use the current authentication model while others will be using the new model. I will send out updates as things transition to the WUSTL Key.
