New at the Library

The fall semester has been a busy one here at the library.  Here are some new things we’ve been working on:

  • The Ames Library, along with five other Illinois academic libraries, was awarded a grant to study how students study – check out the press release!
  • The Thorpe Digital Center has a poster printer for students, faculty and staff to print quality color posters for classroom presentations, poster sessions and conferences.  See the website for our design guide and cost information.
  • We’ve changed the location of the Information Desk on the entry level – let us know what you think!
  • The Ames Library Catalog and I-Share will now text you with a book’s call number (provider charges may apply).
  • Digital Commons is growing – we’ve added nearly every Honors Thesis back to the 1980s, plus Commencement speeches from 2006, 2007 and 2008.

Many of you are getting your final paper/project assignments – don’t forget librarians are available to help you either at the Information Desk, during their office hours, or on AskAmes.  We look forward to helping you!
