3 Things You May Not Know About the Library

August 28, 2015 by Amanda VerMeulen

Whether it’s your 1st or 8th (or, err, 10th) semester the library is doing cool stuff that you might not know about. So in the librarian-y spirit of sharing information, here are 3 things you might not know about the SMCM Library:

1. There’s so much more to check out than books!

…like Chromebooks and laptops, chargers for PC laptops and MacBooks, headphones, Kindles, extension cords, dry erase boards…

PLUS chargers for Android and iPhones! Yassssssssss!

2. (Almost) no overdue fines!

I mean, you still get charged if you never return it, but tons of items are late fee free!

For a complete list of things that don’t have overdue fines (and the ones that do!) see the libraries full fine policy for details.

3. All the Super Nice PeopleTM who want to help you!

Really. So. Nice.

Have a question? Just ask.

From finding Course Reserves to researching your SMP, they live for this stuff.
