As we gear up for another semester of school, we would like to welcome all the new students and say welcome back to our returning students. We are looking forward to an exciting year!
As you visit the library, you will notice that there are some changes coming about. Over the summer we have begun the renovation process of Curry Library, and have already received some new furniture and the start of a fresh coat of paint.
The new release rental books are now located within the Reference section, and there have been some additions to the Juvenile collection. The furniture has moved around somewhat in order to create better study areas. If you need assistance locating something, please let us know.
There have been some changes in staffing as well. In the last year we have regretfully said our goodbyes to Angela Stiffler, Kenette Harder, Virginia Hill, Hugh Stocks, and Suzanne Barrett, who have moved on to bigger and better opportunities. We are excited to welcome, however, our new Library Director, Stephanie DeClue. Mrs. Declue is joining us on September 14th from the State Fair Community College Library in Sedalia, Missouri. We look forward to having her with us!
As always, please feel free to contact us if you need any assistance with library services. Our direct phone number is 816-415-7610 or you may reach us by email at ill@william.jewell.edu.
