We hope everyone is still hanging in there, the semester is almost over! Due to the increased demand and utilization of the library's many resources, we are expanding the study areas on the main floor of Curry Library. We will have additional room towards the back of the library across from the journal section, which will include work areas for independent and group study. Our staff is, as always, happy to help you with all of your resource and research needs. And, as always, if there is anything we can do to improve the library's services, please let us know!

Curry Library is undergoing another transition! Dr. Hugh Stocks retired on April 1st as Curry Library Director. Dr. Fulop is in the process of appointing a search committee for his replacement. Elise Fisher will be serving as Interim Director until a new director is hired. Progress will not stop during this transition period. The Curry Library staff are committed to continuing the level of service necessary to support the academic needs of William Jewell students and faculty.
This is an important time for Curry Library. We are beginning our evolution into a 21st Century library. A 21st Century library means a library that not only has books and other print materials, that part will not change, but extends itself into a collaborative learning environment. This new environment will enable students to learn in the manner that best suits their personal academic needs. In keeping with the mission of Curry Library, we will continue to provide the best in library services to the William Jewell academic community.
