The Stockwell building is connected to the Mudd building by a windowed
corridor, or what most people refer to as "the bridge." |

Photocopiers.
The library offers four photocopiers, two in the Mudd building and two in
Stockwell. They can only operate with a
copy card, and each copy
will debit your card by $.05. You can purchase a card from the
"Plasti-Cashier" which is located in the
library lounge on the Mudd side, or in the Ferguson building. Sorry,
it doesn't make change! |
| |
 |
Copy
Card Dispenser. The copy card dispenser, also called the Plasti-Cashier,
is located in the library lounge near the vending machines. You must
use a card to operate the
copiers in the library. Don't forget to
sign your card!
Each card
initially costs $1.00, but your card will be credited $0.50. To add
more money to card, insert the card back into the dispenser, and feed in
$1, $5, $10 or more. This machine does not accept
change. |

Audio/Visual

small collection of multimedia CDs are in the same area. Audiotapes,
however, are shelved in the regular collection by call number. |

Lounge
Area. This is an area for patrons to study in a relaxed
atmosphere, get a snack or something to drink. |
|
|
 |
Technical
Services Department. This is the area where books are ordered,
received, processed and generally "readied" before they
are shelved in the library. A busy place! |

Classrooms.
The Mudd building offers two classrooms, 209 and 210, for meetings and
bibliographic instruction. The classrooms may be used separately or as one large
room.
Mudd 209 has a

an InFocus data projector, a

Telephone.
This is the public use phone, located next to the elevator. Just
dial "9" to make a local call, or use your pin number to make a
long-distance call. The library does not have a pay phone. The Kellogg Center
is the closest location to access a pay phone. |
|
|
 |
Elevator.
The library has an elevator in each building for patron use as well as the
transport of book carts. Say "hi" to our hard-working
shelvers if you meet one on the elevator! |
