Stop by the security office with your MU ID to pick up two free jump drives. They can be for personal use or work related. The sizes start out under 1GB and go up to 2 GB. They will be available for one week starting Monday January 23rd through Friday January 27th or until supplies last.
The job posting for a part-time, late-night Security Officer is cancelled.
In order to formalize and better organize the processes and procedures of putting on external events at MU Libraries, the Events Team has been formed. The Events Team will meet on the 3rd Thursday of every month. If you are your group is interested in putting on a Libraries-sponsored event, please fill out this form and contact Shannon Cary about attending an Events Team meeting to discuss the event.
Mission
The purpose of the team is to assist staff with planning library-related events and to create a continuing long-range plan of events and exhibitions that emphasizes its position as the heart of the campus. The objectives are to facilitate the production of events and development of a schedule that provides time to effectively promote and seek funding as needed, as well as oversee other budget and security concerns.
A standing committee of those people directly connected to events and exhibits planning will meet initially once a month with the possibility of meeting less frequently once long-range planning is in place. Other members of the Library staff and those connected to singular events occurring in or sponsored by the Library will be asked to present an event/exhibit plan to the team. The team will offer suggestions and discuss any potential problems or areas of concern, but will not act as an approval board. Minutes to the meeting will be supplied to the Executive Director of the Libraries who has ultimate approval.

At the Forum on Fire/Recovery, James Hunter of MU’s Employee Assistance Program, invited library employees to contact his office for assistance with developing strategies to address individual or group stress resulting from the fire/recovery. Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a confidential, professional service provided to all employees, their families and organizational work units. The EAP provides a variety of services to help employees influenced by a range of personal concerns or stressors. The EAP also assists work units and the larger organization to improve quality and productivity. A summary list of individual and organizational factors addressed by the EAP can be found at https://counseling.missouri.edu/employee-assistance-program/index.php. EAP’s phone number is 882-6701. Release time is available for visits with EAP.
