- Spring Recess Hours
March 12-16, 2007
Monday-Friday
7:30am-4:00pm - The following titles are received from the Institute of Physics. Although we are still receiving them electronically, the print editions ceased at the end of 2006 due to confusion on the publisher's part. Please let me know if you need me to reinstate any of them in print or if electronic only is sufficient. They will be left as electronic only if I don't hear from anyone.

- Survey: What do you think of WU Libraries? Our 2007 Library Service Quality Survey has begun. We are attempting to get feedback from every faculty member and student on Danforth campus. Future library services will be influenced by what YOU have to say about current services. The survey takes about 10 minutes to complete. Thank you in advance for your participation. We sincerely welcome your feedback, comments and questions at any time! Please don't wait for the next formal survey. For Physics Library concerns, you can write or email directly to Alison Verbeck, Physics Librarian,or you can use the anonymous suggestion box, if you prefer.
