Greetings!
I hope this finds you well at this busy point in the semester! Thanks to those of you who submitted requests for books this year. Your input helps us to build a useful collection for the department. I've enjoyed seeing several of you this semester and I wish all of you the best in your travels and work this summer. As always, please contact me if I can be of assistance to you...I'll be here all summer!
Best wishes,
Beki
