Need Your ID Card?

Your Saint Mary's "I'm officially a college student" ID card is a pretty big deal.  Not only for what it represents but for a whole bunch of practical reasons.  It's your library card and you need it to get your U-pass (free bus rides), to get into the fitness centre, to write exams (you wouldn't want to miss those!) and for discounts at movies, clubs, a whole lot of things.
Normally, you would come to the Library to get your card.  But with the Service Expo taking place all this week (in Loyola 290), we've moved all of the equipment over there so that you can pick up your ID along with all the other fine stuff and important information. 
Here's the exact schedule:
Thursday, Aug,. 29,   10am – 4pm
Friday, Aug. 30,         10am – 4pm
Saturday, Aug. 31,     10am – 3pm
Sunday, Sept. 1,         10am – 3pm
Monday, Sept. 2,        10am – 3pm
Tuesday, Sept. 3         10am - 4:30pm
Wednesday, Sept. 4,   10am – 4:30pm  At that point we will bring the ID equipment back to the Library and make cards in the ID room from 6pm – 9pm. SMUSA will also be coming back with us and issuing U-passes from 6pm-9pm
Thursday, Sept. 5      10am – 9pm In the Library – both for IDs and U-passes
Friday,     Sept. 6      10am – 9pm In the Library – both for IDs and U-passes

Of course, if you are a returning student you will just need to get your card updated for this year - which you can quickly do at the Circulation Desk - the one on your right when you come in to the Library.

So that's IDs.  Got it?

Doug Vaisey Retiring

Image
After 39 years of wonderful public service, Doug Vaisey will be retiring as head of the Library’s Reference Department next week.  Doug joined Saint Mary’s shortly after graduating from Dalhousie’s Library School.  It wasn’t long before he was helping plan the move to the newly constructed Patrick Power Library.  As the library grew, so did the Reference Department.  Under Doug’s leadership, it quickly developed its reputation for unparalleled reference service and dedication to the Saint Mary’s research community, a reputation it maintains to this day.  Doug didn’t just preach the importance of great service, he served as its model, whether helping a struggling student with their first paper or a graduate student with the most challenging research needs. Countless Saint Mary’s students, past and present, got better grades because of his involvement.  And countless library school students and library staff were the beneficiaries of his rigorou...
