Free ACRL Conference in Baton Rouge

I don't suppose it would hurt to promote...

Further OPAC changes

The catalog was successfully changed over on Monday. However, I did notice a need to make it easier to "restart" a search and to see the home page again. The logo now returns users to the basic search (previously it did nothing), what used to say "Search ULM" now says "Search/Home" (because it does actually "search ULM"), and there a link to the home page at the right.

Also, a new summer graphic will hopefully be selected and added by or before Monday.

New OPAC coming May 25th

I'm happy to report that the new OPAC will go online May 25th. New links have already been added to our current production version.

I've added this to the reference blog and the news box.

Hours name change

To make life more simple, I've re-named the hours file to 'hour.pdf' so that it can be linked to and will always be the correct hours file, and will be updated the same way each season. This came up as part of the new catalog, and the link would have to be changed seasonally otherwise.

I am leaving the old one, "summer09hours.pdf" online because some people may already be linking to it somewhere.

(this is one of those things I thought about a long time ago, and then forgot)

Downtime news

I forgot to mention that I added the LOUIS downtime problem to the news box yesterday.

Scifinder link + graphics

a) SciFinder's link has been updated thanks to Mike. I added it to the quick links on the database page menu as well.

b) I'm trying to find a good graphic for the summer semester. I'll have some candidates ready soon, hopefully.

c) some old files were deleted today:

entire "libraryimage" folder and its contents. Some were moved to "images."

More Hours changes

I've changed the hours to the Summer semester, but I've still included May 7 because May 7th isn't over yet.
Here is the new Summer 09 Schedule; I decided to add months at the bottom.

Naturally, we should want to have a summer graphic, but we only got fall and spring from Rob. I've asked him if he has anything he'd like for us to use, but if there isn't, I'll probably come up with something.
