SUGGESTION BOX
May, 2005
|
1. I think the Gale online database is a very
helpful tool for students. It is very
efficient and easy to use. Great
addition to the library! |
We
are glad you find this Gale Literary database useful. We will be adding more research databases,
similar to this one, by the fall. |
|
2. Please purchase: Initial D, Dragonball Z
vol. 19,Gito the Manga books,
Halloweentown, Halloweentown High, Get a Clue, Smart House, Quints,
Tangerine Bear, rest of the Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman, more musicals, more
Doris Day, Rock Hudson, Cary Grant movies, |
These
are being considered for purchase.
Thanks for the suggestions! |
|
3. There should be a time limit on the
computers so other people can use them.
Now I have to go to |
We
are sorry you experienced this problem. If this happens again, please inquire
at the Reference Desk. The Adult
Services Dept. has two circulating laptops for adult use which assist with
overflow when the public workstations are full. We will be purchasing additional laptops to
help alleviate waiting time. |
|
4. I think getting the book “Flying High: the
Illini: the 2004-2005 Illini Record-Breaking Season” was a waste of library
money. I hope you got it free for the
U. of I. It is just an ad for their
school. Now you will have to bet books
for all other schools when they have a good team. |
This
book was added to the library’s sports collection because of the recent
playoffs and prominent national news coverage this team received. Whenever a local national-playoff team is
covered by the press to the extent that this one was, and if a book is
published which covers their winning season, it is likely that the library
will acquire that book. |
|
5. Please consider screening for residency
when registering for story time. I
have found sessions to be closed when I know families from outside
communities are attending! |
We
will take your suggestion into consideration as we plan future programs. At
this point, the library does not prohibit non-residents from participating in
any programs offered for adults, teens, or children. |
