Odum Express—new campus document delivery program

Beginning January 8, 2007, the library will be providing free campus delivery of library books and articles through Odum Express to faculty and staff to your department’s administrative office. What does this mean for you as a staff member working at an administrative office? 1. You are eligible for this service, and we have many materials that may be of interest to you. See: “The Lighter Side of Odum” flyer for Details.” 2. You will never have to make a trip to the library again on behalf of faculty members in order to fetch books for them, or copy articles, since they can request material themselves and have it delivered. What do we ask of you in return? 1.

When our student assistant arrives with books for your department’s faculty and staff, all you have to do is read the name on the book band and put it in the appropriate person’s mailbox.

2.

Faculty and staff will return their books to your office for our student to pick up. We will provide a container for you to put them in, with our contact phone number and e-mail information on it. If the container gets too full before our assistant happens to return to your department, you may phone us or e-mail us to let us know you need a pickup.

3.
