North Campus Silverman Library Update
May 15th, 2012

Visiting the North Campus?

The Silverman Library’s 3rd Floor is Closed for the Summer

The third floor of the Oscar. A. Silverman Library in Capen Hall is closed to the public for the summer for major New York Power Authority grant-funded energy conservation renovations. South Campus folks, please continue using the Delivery+ service.

Work includes updating heating, cooling and lighting systems and replacing the ceiling tiles.  Expect some construction-related noise and dust.

Thank you for your patience as we work with the campus to improve library facilities.  Please contact library@buffalo.edu if you have additional questions or concerns.

UB Libraries Today & Happy National Nurses Week!
May 7th, 2012

The Health Sciences Library is featured in the Spring issue of UB Libraries Today.  Take a look!  The beautiful images will knock your socks off.

This issue has come out just in time for a celebration of National Nurses Week.  In it, I offer a reflection on my 25-year career as liaison to the UB school of nursing and my nursing background.  It has been and continues to be a pleasure to work with nursing students, faculty, and staff.

National Nurses Week is celebrated annually from May 6, also known as National Nurses Day, through May 12, the birthday of Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing.  Warm celebratory wishes to all the nurses out there for all you do.

Delivery+ – a great service for Nursing faculty and staff
May 1st, 2012

Delivery+ enables faculty and staff to request materials from any UB library on any UB campus, including our electronic collections.

For current UB faculty or staff members, log on to your ILLiad account and submit a request for materials found in any of the UB libraries. Scanned articles and book chapters are delivered electronically to faculty/staff desktops, while circulating books and media are available for pickup at a UB library circulation desk of the faculty or staff member’s choice.

24-hour turnaround time from receipt of request (excluding weekends and holidays) ensures speedy delivery of research materials owned by the UB Libraries. Need more information or help? Contact Cynthia Bertuca, Associate Director of Access Services for Document Delivery (829-5738; cbertuca @ buffalo.edu) or Anne Bouvier, Manager, Document Delivery/ILL Borrowing Services (645-2812; bouvier @ buffalo.edu).
