New Locations for Computers in Zumberge

August 23rd, 2006

The reference and computer area of the Zumberge Library in Allendale went through a major renovation this summer. As part of that renovation, most of the computers in the library were spread out among the library’s four floors. Users can now find computers in the northwest corner (overlooking the clock tower) of the second, third and fourth floors of the library, along with a dozen computers that will be in place adjacent to the new reference desk once renovations are completed on the first floor. As always, users can also check out laptops from the circulation desk.

In addition to the visible changes in the reference and circulation areas of the Zumberge Library, other changes that have taken place include moving the Government Documents collection to the 4th floor, expanding the juvenile and young adult collections along the west and north walls of the 2nd floor and the move of the Curriculum Materials Library (the former KCRC) to the 2nd floor of the library.

Before you toss out that copy card, remember that it will save you three cents per page when you are using the copiers or microfilm printers (10 cents per page with the cash vs. 7 cents per page with the card).
