HAVE YOUR SAY! We want to hear from you. Leave us a comment and let us know how we are doing.
What other library patrons had to say:

We should really get some Macintosh video cable adapters, as presently Mac users must provide their own to use the smart boards in the study rooms.
Thanks for your request. Harriet Irving Library has purchased one full set of all VGA adapters from the last 3-4 iterations of the macbook line. Also have a 2nd set for just the modern macbooks. So there are 2 different reserve item packages.

As the only place to eat in the library is the café, students should be encouraged to eat at the café and as soon as possible vacate the tables to allow other students to eat. There are other tables for group study/chat in the library.
In response to such a high demand for seating during the hours of 11:00 am – 2:00pm, new tabletop signage has been created to help manage the traffic during these hours. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

I think you should serve/brew locally roasted Fair Trade coffee, not Star Bucks. “Just Us”, Nova Scotia or local NB roasters – Grand Manan Company, etc.
Thank you for taking the time to comment about coffee options for the Café. We have passed your suggestions along to Sodexo.

The marble on the top step outside is really slippery. Almost fell twice and so did my friend. Can you put up a sign or something with some traction? Thanks.
Thank you for comment. Cleaning staff has been notified and immediately re-salted the top step. They will continue to monitor this area frequently to keep it as safe as possible.

Please speak more quietly when chatting amongst yourselves. I understand that it is necessary to talk to students when they come to you for help, but please be courteous of the students on the computers nearby when you are chatting with your co-workers. For those of us who do not own laptops these computers are the only one’s we have access to and it is awfully hard to study and concentrate when you are chit chatting amongst each other all the time. Please….especially now that we are into exam time…
Hi,
Thanks very much for your comment. You make a good point, and I’ve shared it with all the staff who work at the Research Help Desk.
Best wishes on your exams,
Lesley Balcom
