Library News

To better meet the ongoing research needs of Ph.D. students, the Library will now deliver items from its collections directly to currently enrolled Ph.D. students who reside outside of the Central New York area, but within the continental United States. Previously, this delivery service was available only to those enrolled in one of SU’s formal distance education (ISDP) programs.

In addition to books, the Library will also provide scanned copies of articles from print journals in its collections. For detailed instructions and request forms, see http://library.syr.edu/information/isdp.htm.

For more information, contact Access Services Librarian Robert Capuano at (315) 443-6180 or rgcapuan@syr.edu.

In response to requests for additional quiet study space in Bird Library, the Library has opened a quiet reading room on the lower level of the Learning Commons. The new room is for SU students, faculty and staff only and is open 24 hours, Sunday through Friday, along with the rest of the Learning Commons (floors 1, 2, and the lower level). The room is outfitted with individual study tables and carrels and is equipped with a printer, network ports for student laptops, power plugs, and Air Orange access.

We welcome additional comments and suggestions about library spaces and services via the Suggestion Box.
