Resource of the Month

Mug Hub

A generous donation of mugs by John Hart has become the start of Gunter Library’s Eaglet Pantry Mug Hub. Are you heading to a meeting and forgot your coffee mug? Come by Gunter Library and grab a free one. Hosting a meeting and don’t want to use Styrofoam cups? Grab what you need from the Mug Hub! Too many coffee mugs cluttering up your kitchen or workspace? Drop off your extra mugs at our new Mug Hub!

Submit Your Book Recommendations

All faculty, students, and staff--now is the time to submit your recommendations for books to be purchased to support your teaching, research, and learning. Please include as much information as possible--author, title, date, publisher, etc. and indicate your preference for print or e-books. Please note there are some publisher restrictions with e-books including the number of pages you can download (usually 60 pages or less). If this will impede your use of the book, then be sure to indicate you are requesting print. We need your recommendations asap. Print books ordered for COA are housed at Gunter Library at the Gulf Coast Research Laboratory. Please email to: guntergcrl@usm.edu
