T-Shirt Order

Did you order an IAPD t-shirt? They are now available for pick-up in Seaton 203 with Natalie Berg. Didn’t order one and regretting it? There are still plenty available in all sizes and colors for $15. See Natalie to buy one or email her with questions (nb2009@ksu.edu).

Weigel Library Update – Interlibrary Loans

As a trial service beginning immediately and throughout the summer, Weigel Library patrons can now request to have their interlibrary loans delivered to Weigel. To take advantage of this new delivery service, however, the patron must reply to the ILL loan email notification requesting delivery to Weigel.  Please do not request Weigel delivery with a note on the initial ILL request. 

The interlibrary loan will be sent through campus mail, which could add a day or two to the pick-up time.   Weigel staff will send the patron an email when the material has arrived in Weigel.   Interlibrary loan materials can also be returned to Weigel. 

We hope this change enhances the experience of faculty and students when using the resources of K-State Libraries.
