Mizzou Libraries Launch a New Library Catalog Option
Mizzou Libraries have added a more traditional catalog option to our homepage. Simply called “Catalog,” the link is located directly below the Discover@MU search box. The Catalog is ideal for users who want to search our physical format collections or prefer traditional browsing functionality. It will also be used to access information about physical items on Reserve at our service desks. You can access the Catalog here.
Additionally, the Catalog makes it easier for users to renew multiple University of Missouri items at once. Please note that MOBIUS loans cannot be renewed through the Catalog.
Importantly, the Catalog does not replace Discover@MU. Discover@MU remains the best tool for broad searches across our physical and online collections, including MOspace, the Digital Library, and more.
Librarians, Staff Members and Student Workers Needed for Homecoming Open House
We will be hosting our annual Ellis Library Open House after the Homecoming Parade on Sept. 27. The event will probably be from 10 a.m. to noon, and we will also need some help with setup starting around 9 a.m. It’s always a fun event; we provide snacks and drinks, plus family-friendly activities, such as button-making and decorating mini pumpkins.
If you can help out (please check with your supervisor first), please let me know by the end of this week. If you do help out, you may choose if you want overtime pay or comp time.

Reminders About News Notes
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.
2. Please send completed items as you wish them to be posted in the blog. This saves time and confusion. If you would like help in composing your post or if you want me to edit the post, please let me know in advance of the submission deadline.
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.
5. If you have corrections to items in News Notes, please send them directly to me.
Thank you for your cooperation. Following these procedures will aid me in making sure that News Notes items are published quickly and accurately. Please let me know if you have any questions.
