*NEW* Recycling containers



Big, bright blue and green recycling units have been added to various locations in Shad-Fack.

The BLUE units will handle any plastic, aluminum and glass containers. Currently, this doesn't include coffee cups.

The GREEN units are for office or printer paper.

Please help us stay clean and green!

*NEW* Library food policy



Starting this term Shad-Fack is experimenting with a new space where students can enjoy snacks and other food, along with their studies. Muffin & potato chip eating students no longer need to step out to the foyer or porch.

The Periodicals Reading Room is to the left as you enter the Library lobby. We've changed the furniture a bit to provide a cafe-like feel.

While food and snacks are restricted to the Reading Room, covered beverages are still permitted throughout the Library.

This is a work-in-progress, so there may still be future changes.

Suggestions welcomed!

What's all that banging!

Shad-Fack is getting a new roof. While new shingles are not as glamorous as a new dining area in the Library, it will finally end year's of leaks.

Here are a few photos of roof work involving BIG equipment, which is always exciting!
