Kudzu-Ops Mailing List: FW: University of Memphis ILL update

[John Burger (jburger]

ASERL & WRLC Resource Sharing Friends:

 

Please see the note below from Sofiya at U-Memphis indicating two staff departures this week.  They have colleagues who are helping cover the work in the short term, but are a bit short-handed for the foreseeable future.  If you can re-route any requests to other libraries in the near term, I am sure TMA would appreciate the relief.

 

MOST IMPORTANT FOR THEIR RS PARTNERS:  Please use the departmental emails rather than contacting individual ILL staff at U-Memphis to ensure your requests are received/routed appropriately:

For Borrowing – ill_borrowing [at] memphis.edu

For Lending – ill_lending [at] memphis.edu

 

Thanks much.

Hi John,

 

Just wanted to send off a brief update to all our resource sharing consortia partners through you.

 

Regina Cade, our ILL Lending Library Assistant is retiring this Friday, October 29.

Regina has been with the University Libraries, for FOURTY years and I applaud her work ethic and exceptional service to the University of Memphis.

 

Cindi Nichols has resigned this week too.

 

We are grateful to colleagues from other departments willing and able to step in temporarily and help us to continue operating as expected, but I wanted colleagues from our ASERL network to know. I am updating our contact information but it is possible that I accidentally miss something somewhere.

 

Best e-mails to reach us are:

For Borrowing – ill_borrowing [at] memphis.edu

For Lending – ill_lending [at] memphis.edu

 

Paula Phillips (pphillips [at] memphis.edu) and I (spdahman [at] memphis.edu) are still on board.

 

Thank you so much,

 

Sofiya
