Just the Facts.....
As of end of the October, students have checked out 11,216 items this semester! Even with less students this year and the fact that due to textbook we started checkout a week later this year, that is still over 1000 items more than last year! Thank goodness for our volunteers who help us try to get them back on the shelves!
