Library Exhibit

"The Holiday Season is Here" is the title of the current exhibit in the Library's exhibit cases. Come and read about mistletoe and holly and how you can "gift" the Library at this special season. The exhibit will continue during regular library hours through January 31, 2000.

New Exit Gate to be Installed

On December 21, 1999, the Library will install a new exit gate for its Checkpoint security system. The present turnstiles were moved from the previous library site in 1977, and have served the library well. However, the new gate conforms to ADA requirements, and will be less physically intrusive than the present equipment.

Interlibrary Loans Limited

The UAMS Library Interlibrary Loan Department is not borrowing orginal materials (books, journal issues/volumes, or audio visual items) during the month of December. We will resume borrowing of orginial material January 3, 2000. Requests for photocopied material will be processed as usual.
