Master Planning - Keep the Science Library in Holcomb
To the Master Planning Group, Provost and President of Butler University: We the undersigned faculty, staff and students wish to express grave concerns with the identified Master Plan for the move of the Science library to Irwin. In the interest of students and faculty, it is moved that collections, reference services and the trained science librarian remain available in the current area for students in our programs and the sciences. We affirm the good job that has been done by the science library over many years. We want the science librarians to be near the students and faculty in both the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences and in Gallahue so that one-on-one bibliographic instruction and other services may be offered to students.

I strongly believe the population served by the science library is very different from that of Irwin. The "customer / client service", both quality and approach, is also substantially different between the two libraries and the librairans from the two sites. This was true, has been true and is still true over the years from my experience when I was a student and student-worker there, to after I graudated and visited there, and now my children and I occasionally visit there. Science Library also serves as a consortium for Science and Pharmacy students to look for resources, study and hold discussion there, versus I rarely see such happening at Irwin. No matter if Irwin will have an extension of space or rearrangement of collection/service to intergrate this (need of Science /pharamacy students/faculty), I am very skeptical that this will full serve the needs of such to the most welcome extent as the existing Science Library at its current location, facilities, both physical and intellectual/human power.
