Special Spaces in Mizzou Libraries: Sensory and Color Accessible Maps
Finding the perfect study spot can be difficult in Ellis Library. Some days you need quiet and other days you want to be alone. In order to make finding these spaces easier, we’ve created some sensory maps and color accessible maps.
The color coded sensory maps show where in Ellis Library you can find quiet space, uncrowded spaces, and spaces with natural light on every floor of Ellis Library.
The color accessible maps highlight all the seating options in Ellis Library: regular seating, high/stand up seating, soft seating. It also shows you were the restrooms are located on each floor.
You can access the maps here or you can find them under maps and floorplans on the main library website.

Here are a few policies and procedures regarding News Notes.
1. Items for News Notes should be submitted to me by noon on Thursday. Please let me know if you will have a late submission.

3. If you have images for your posts, please send them to me as a graphic file attached (not inserted in) to your e-mail.
4. Items must be work-related, but I do occasionally post personal announcements about staff members in a Staff Corner post.
