Update on Library Services

Now that Fall Break is over, it seems like a good time for a quick update on library services. Yes, the Tarver Library is still experiencing staffing shortages. As of October 17, we no longer offer reference desk services after 5:00 PM, except on Sunday when we are available from 2-9 PM. We are still available via e-mail, text, or even IM http://libraries.mercer.edu/tarver/reference/ask-us.
