Hello Fuller Library Patrons!

Due to a mandatory library staff meeting, the Fuller Library will open at 1pm next Friday, February 23rd. Thank you for your cooperation!

Have you seen this subject header and gone, “Huh? What?! WHY?!?!” DON’T PANIC!

With Fuller Library’s new patron-driven acquisition system, InterLibrary Loan book requests are viewed as purchases first. We try to find the title first as an eBook, and if it doesn’t exist, then as a print book. If we are unable to purchase the title in either form, THEN we borrow it from another institution.

TL;DR: Your ILL request was cancelled because we bought it!

If you have any questions about our new patron-driven acquisition system, please feel free to contact us at [email protected].

Thanks for your time!

Happy Black History Month! Once a year, we dedicate a month to celebrate the incredible accomplishments and contributions of black Americans. This is not only an opportunity to remember black achievement, but it’s also a great opportunity to read some good books!
