Shout Out to Librarian Mark Bodnar

Published by Dipa Barua

Q: Just want to give a big shout out to Mark Bodnar. I went to see him about APA Style the other day and he was very knowledgeable and helpful with this topic. Mark was very approachable and friendly, he seemed passionate about what he is doing and showed a true interest in helping me with my issues. Glad that SFU has people like Mark who is great at what he is doing. Thanks!

Linux Books

Published by Anonymous

Q:   I was looking for a Linux book that told me how to use the tar command to look inside a tar archive; I would also like a book  

that describes Linux partitions. In looking through the catalogue, I noticed that you only have 3 Linux books; I have about ten in my personal library. I would like to see a bigger selection of Linux books in the library.

Issue with ProQuest ebrary site

Published by Anonymous

Q:  The ProQuest ebrary interface does not appear to be working properly (for me, at least). After logging into the  Library through my SFU account, the ebrary page opens, but then continues to act like it is loading over and over again, and does not respond to requests  when I click on the Download title button. I am not sure if this is a problem for other users, but I continually have problems trying to access/download ebooks from the ProQuest ebrary site.

No A/C in SFU Bennett Library

Published by Anonymous

Q: To whom it may concern.  The weather inside the library is really inconvenient. I think that the air condition system does not work appropriatelly. Also, you can see some individuals are having their meals inside the library and in this really inconvenient condition some spicific smells can distract you easilly.
