The circulation desk at the Library should be open at all times when the Library is open. If this cannot be then the circulation desk should be open at least from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. so then people arriving and leaving work can be helped by someone. As it is now the circulation desk does not open until 9 a.m. while classes start at 8:30 a.m. This is inconvenient for faculty and students who might need their help before an 8:30 a.m. class. Having someone at the Library who can answer questions, sort out complaints and check out books when the machines cannot, would be great. This might cut down on books being "borrowed" without being checked out.
