Your source for what's new at Mizzou Libraries
We had a library takeover of Mizzou’s Instagram stories during National Library Week. The stories consisted of interviews with our new peer navigator stories. We just found out those stories had 37,750 total impressions, with a 97% retention rate.
Thanks to Taira Meadowcroft and Emma Fernandez for organizing this with the student workers and Mizzou social media staff!
If you have any work-related photos from the last year that you would like to share with your colleagues, please send it to Shannon Cary (carysn@missouri.edu) by next Wednesday for inclusion in a Celebration of Service slide show. Thanks!

Show Me Mizzou
Please send all Amazon requests to Gayle Mooney or Jacqueline Eiben instead of through Show Me Shop as we have encountered some potential problems when returning through Amazon orders purchased through Show Me Shop. For other general supplies orders not from Amazon, shoppers, please continue to use Show Me Shop.
For all toner replacement requests not on an automatic replacement plan or from a Xerox or Ricoh machine on contract, please request through PT Martin.
Some have noticed blemishes on much of the paper we order on contract from Show Me Shop. We have learned that what seem like oil residue is actually moisture left in the paper during the manufacturing process. While it is often not a problem to print on this paper for regular jobs, please contact Jacqueline Eiben to obtain a ream of higher quality paper for your department for print jobs that necessitate a superior grade of paper.
After you graduate, the University Libraries will still be here to serve you. To find out more about the resources available to alumni, visit Library Resources for Alumni.
All of us at the University Libraries, wish you the very best in your future endeavors!
