The Miller Library had its 14 "salad bowl" lamps replaced. The lamps needed to be replaced because of frayed wiring, and Stanford used this opportunity to replace the incandescent fixtures with ones using compact fluorescent bulbs that are more energy efficient. The new lights are also significantly brighter. Jon Flores from Facilities was very patient with me as I agonized over the style and color of the replacement fixtures.

For almost a decade, Polly Armstrong has been the public services manager for Special Collections and there is good reason why you’ll frequently find her name in the acknowledgments of many published books: Polly gives patrons outstanding public service. Thus, it is with mixed emotions that I announce Polly Armstrong’s retirement from SUL beginning April 3, 2013.
We are very excited to introduce to you a new feature/link on the SUL News page! A newspaper icon with a "Submit a news article" link now resides at the top, left hand side of the News page.
