Summit service restarts on Monday, Aug. 3

The Summit service, which allows WSU Libraries’ patrons to request library materials from member libraries of the Orbis Cascade Alliance, will resume on Monday, Aug. 3, for the Pullman campus only at this time. Because the campus is currently closed, materials can be mailed to a physical location. The WSU Libraries are planning for onsite pickup within the next two weeks.

The service is heavily used by library patrons, according to access services supervisor Brian McManus. A limited number of alliance libraries will be participating, 16 out of the 38 total members. Because of the coronavirus pandemic, there will be a quarantine period of four days between arrival times and the times requested materials will be made available to patrons.

The WSU Libraries are continuing to provide library services at a distance. Please visit the remote resources and guidance webpage for help with your research.

The Notices and Announcements section is provided as a service to the WSU community for sharing events such as lectures, trainings, and other highly transactional types of information related to the university experience. Information provided and opinions expressed may not reflect the understanding or opinion of WSU. Accuracy of the information presented is the responsibility of those who submitted it. The self-uploaded posts are reviewed for compliance with state statutes and ethics guidelines but are not edited for spelling, grammar, or clarity.
