I just wanted to say thank you to all of you who have taken the time to offer your ideas and feedback about The Western Libraries. I've been eagerly reading these and am looking forward to working with all of you to answer your needs, whether they be quiet in the library, the construction of a cafe, installing a book drop on the south side of campus or investigating the feasability of longer library hours and/or a 24 hour study space. I'm very excited to be coming to a place where the students, faculty and staff care so much about their library.

First let me say, on behalf of The Western Libraries, thank you all very, very much for the great ideas being generated and dialogue that's going on here. Please keep it going! And spread the word about the blog to friends and profs.

OK - What is the library going to do with all these comments and ideas, when do we get a response, etc.?
