the entire room was repainted; an accent wall
has been painted to match the main library

on the wall; and inspirational posters have
been framed and hung. We plan to have one
wall painted with "white board paint" so that
students and faculty can brainstorm and

14. Bookmobile @ WST
In order to better serve
associates, we created a
"bookmobile" and wheeled it
through the building. We
distributed and collected
"Getting to Know You"
surveys to better build our
collection. The bookmobile
was very well received with
several items checked out
(we took a laptop to keep
track of checkouts) and
quite a few items returned
("Oh, I've been meaning to
