Storage Requests Now Online

When the UAMS Library outgrew its present space and moved the pre-1966 journal collection to the Library storage area in the Distribution Center, one of the challenges of getting access to those volumes was having to come to the Library, and fill out a request form to access that volume.

On September 18, 2000, those forms became available online from the UAMS Library Home Page (http://www.library.uams.edu). Please look the form and the accompanying information over, and if you have any questions, contact Dena Plaisted or Tony Ibarra.

Noise Pollution Causes a Problem

The design of the UAMS Library allows noise to travel very easily. While some library users can tolerate a great deal of noise, others find noise very distracting. Please work to keep noise to a minimum in the study areas of the library- and the library staff is working on ways to reduce noise in the public areas of the library.

Covered Drinks - YES! Food - NO!

Yes, users can now bring covered drinks into the Library, but food is still prohibited because of potential damage to Library materials, equipment, furniture and carpet. People bringing food into the Library will be asked to take it outside the Library.
