Want to check our journals

The Library is looking into this possibility. We need to check into replacement costs if journals are not returned. The Library must have journals available to students; lost or missing issues are a consideration. We will compare print journals to electronic journals as well. We will up-date this discussion within the next few weeks as we examine this policy change.

Replace the book For Whom the Bell Tolls (Bradenton, 1 copy lost, 1 copy missing)
