Q: My father was an architect and Harvard graduate- he was a professor for Master of Architecture for Urban Design and Environmental Studies for 30 years. He has passed away and we have a library of books that he owned and used. There are in excellent shape and are quite expensive. I am wondering if your libraries would like them as a donation. Not sure how many exactly but I am estimating around 100 or so.

Can you let me know if your library would like them and I would be willing to drop them off - thank you kindly.
Which library?  Belzberg (SFU Vancouver)

A: Thank-you for your suggestion.

Q: Please consider placing one copy of a textbook- required for SFU classes and/or texts used for curriculum design (K-12 texts) for education classes- on the reserve shelves.  All too often, materials needed for main/mandatory classes are checked out for use by one or two students, at the same time. By having one copy of frequently checked out texts on reserve, on hold, for a few hours or day, it allows more students access to these high-demand materials.

Q: Windows 8 is awful. It is counter intuitive and its menus are too insubstantial or circuitous to use effectively. I really hope you do not put Windows 8 on the rest of the computers. Please either keep Windows 7 or wait for Windows 9. PLEASE DO NOT INSTALL WINDOWS 8 ON ANY MORE OF SFU'S COMPUTERS.
Which library?  Bennett (SFU Burnaby Mountain)

A: Thank you for your feedback. First off, you'll be happy to know that we have upgraded the pilot PCs from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1. This update addresses some of the issues that people have had with Windows 8.
