We have a designer!

The University has engaged the firm Prozign to do interior design work on the first floor of Evans Library.  Prozign's recent projects have included redesign work at Houston Public Library and the University of Houston Law Library.

The reference collection is on the move:

In an effort to maximize public space on the first floor, we're reducing the size of the reference collection.  Look for things to start happening at the end of May or the first week in June as we move books to their new locations.  Some will go to the stacks right away, others will go to a temporary location until we make room for them in the stacks.

News from the working groups:

Customer Experience Group (Dennis Clark, Chair)

What does good service look like?  The committee is currently working hard to define what good service looks like and defining expectations for service.

Learning Spaces Group (Susie Goodwin, Chair)

The group has identified specific usage zones for the public areas on the first floor with a focus on a mixture of collaborative and quiet study.
