Books! Books! Books!

October 15, 2008

Doherty Library is overflowing with books for this year’s booksale. Books are stacked floor to ceiling in our storage room. Prices are rock-bottom at $2.00 for hardbacks and $.50 for paperbacks. Items for the sale are withdrawn from the Doherty collection or come from community donations. We have everything from scholarly works to literary fiction; from reference books to best-sellers. Something for everyone! Something for every mood!

Doherty Library Book Sale will be open to UST Students, Staff and Faculty only on Wednesday October 29th. It will be open to the public Thursday October 30th thru Sunday November 2nd.

The sale will be open from 1/2 hour after opening until 1/2 hour before closing.

Chat with a Librarian

October 1, 2008

Doherty reference librarians have long been available for questions by phone and by email. And of course we are always happy to help researchers in person. But this Fall, the Doherty Reference Department has instituted a new communication venue — Chat. So whether you are at home, at play or even somewhere in the library and don’t want to leave your stuff unattended, send us a question. To participate in Chat, you can find us (and add us to your buddy list) on AIM (DohReference), MSN LiveMessenger (doherty_reference), and Yahoo! Messenger (doherty_reference). You can also connect directly with us through our Meebo account from the Doherty Chat page even if you don’t have a chat account yourself.
