Top Five Reference Queries

The Reference staff get asked a wide variety of questions each day. The following list, in no particular order, is a collection of frequently asked questions asked at the Reference desk at the beginning of a semester.

1.       Where are the bathrooms?

·         There are two sets of men's/women's bathrooms on the main and upper levels. These sets are in the front and back of the library.

2.       Where are the printers?

·         Printers are located on all three levels of the library. The main level has two - one is by Periodicals and the other is in the large copy center next to the Multi-Purpose Room.

 3.       Can I print in color?

·         Yes, there is a color printer in the large copy center next to the Multi-Purpose Room.

 4.       Can you help me locate this book?

·         Certainly. I can go up with you or I can give you a floor map.

 5.       Do you have XXXXXX textbook?

·         We do not normally purchase textbooks but we may have an older edition that has been donated by a previous user.
