We loan materials and copy articles without charge to other requesting libraries. Whenever possible, we only borrow from libraries that do not charge us. However, when materials that you need cannot be obtained for free, we do not pass on the fee to you. GaSoU requesters have responsibilities in this international ILL cooperative. Borrowed materials need to be returned to Henderson Library on time so they may be mailed back to their home libraries.
Additional information is also available from the Library homepage.
Ms. Arnott assessed our current conditions and practices, and assisted us in the preparation of the long-term preservation plan. Currently underway is the installation of mylar on some fourth floor storage shelving that does not meet long-term preservation standards. The mylar will mitigate the deleterious effects of gases emitted by the pressboard wood shelving. The gases are harmless to humans but they accelerate the deterioration of paper products. The Library has submitted a new grant proposal to the NEH to obtain funds to pay for mylar.
