2002-03 Notable Accomplishments
- The Pathfinder for the Library II was converted to an online format and is now available via the library’s web page. Faculty, staff, and students working at off-campus locations may now access Pathfinder information.
- The library’s collections continued to be weeded. The removal of dated, obsolete materials was completed over a three-month period.

Over 1,000 items were de-selected, removed from the shelves, the library’s online card catalog (Voyager), and OCLC.
