The Mardigian Library has a new, special digital bookplate to acknowledge and thank the individuals who give a donation of $50 or more to the library during the 2009-10 academic year, the university’s 50th anniversary. Your donation will go to the library’s Collection of Excellence fund which is used to purchase books, videos, e-books, and much more.

The university was founded in 1959 with a gift from the Ford Motor Company, and in the last 50 years, over 140,000 students have attended classes and more than 41,000 individuals obtained degrees. Hopefully ALL of them used the library!

The current library was the first structure completed in a building phase that began in the late 1970’s, opening in 1980 with seating for 1,200. Over the years, many changes have taken place, including the addition of a coffee bar, a computer lab, and a faculty lounge. Today’s library staff members actively engage with faculty to provide the best possible instruction, resources and services for our students.

You may make a gift online or by mail.

Thank you for your support!

50th Anniversary Party

nospam@example.com (Kathy Irwin) — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 08:40:10 -0400

The campus will be celebrating its 50th Anniversary during the 2009-2010 academic year. We plan to join the party by hosting a “Library Alumni Open House” October 16th from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

The library has employed hundreds of students over the years. Student Assistants perform many essential functions: processing materials to be “shelf ready,” shelving books, staffing the Circulation Desk so that their fellow students borrow materials, and providing reference assistance under the guidance of reference librarians. In short, Student Assistants are crucial to the library’s ability to serve the campus. We literally could not function without them. In fact, when our staff members are at meetings and someone asks, “Who is running the library?” we always answer, “The students, of course!!”

We are trying to locate ALL former library Student Assistants so that we can invite everyone who has ever worked at the library. If you are a former library Student Assistant, please be sure that we have your contact information so that we can invite you to the party. If you know others who worked in the library during their student days, please share their contact information with us so that we can invite them to the party and encourage them to come. It will be wonderful to see “old friends” and to catch up! Please send contact information to: sasbury@umd.umich.edu or call 313-593-5236.
