Studying in Progress…

It’s hard to believe that classes have ended and exam week is upon us.  This means that many of you will retreat to the Bentley Library to seek out a quiet corner to study for finals and write your papers.  It is important that we work together to maintain a quiet environment conducive to study.

Please, be mindful of your voices and courteous to the people working around you. If you do encounter a person or group that is disrupting the quiet you may approach a library staff member either in person or by sending an anonymous instant message via our Meebo chat widget. Simply go to the library’s home page, look for “I Want To...” and click on “Help Keep the Library Quiet!“.  A  library staff person will respond as quickly as possible.  Thank you for your cooperation!

Is It Getting Loud in Here? Please, Help Us Keep the Library Quiet.

It’s hard to believe that today is the last day of classes and finals are upon us. For most of you this translates into late-night study sessions and hours spent hunched over a keyboard typing papers. Many of you will retreat to the Bentley Library to seek out a quiet corner or comfortable chair to accomplish these tasks.  We ask that you work together with us to maintain a quiet environment conducive to study.

Please, be mindful of your voices and courteous to the people working around you. If you do encounter a person or group that is disrupting the quiet you may approach a library staff member either in person or by sending an anonymous instant message via our Meebo chat widget. Simply go to the library’s home page, look for “I Want To...” and click on “Help Keep the Library Quiet!“.  There’s no need to log-in or identify yourself. A  library staff person will respond as quickly as possible. Best of luck to all of you with finals, and have a wonderful winter break!

Bentley Librarians say…Chat With Us!

The Bentley Library is making it easier to ask us questions! Simply look for the “Chat With Us” box on our web pages (currently on our databases pages and our research help page).   Check for the message indicating that the Reference Desk is online, then enter your message.  You will automatically be connected with us – no need to create a user name or have an existing IM account of any kind.  How easy is that?

Did you catch us while we are “offline”?  No worries, if it is during normal hours you may reach us in person, email or phone.  Our research help page has all of those details!
