The Marion Campus is now offering free recycling for your old batteries!
Small batteries, sizes A thru D, watch, calculator and cell phone batteries are welcome.
NO large-type batteries (such as a car battery)!
One-gallon white buckets are located in the Morrill Hall Student Lounge, the Library, the OSUM General Computer Lab (LC220), the MTC Student Lounge and at the Ohio State Delaware Center.
The batteries will be picked up as part of the general haz-mat collection on campus that occurs two or three times per year.

Is it the Flu?
The season is here - flu, colds, H1N1 scares.
The library and campus are trying to help you stay healthy this year. Hand sanitzers are being installed in public parts of campus buildings as soon as possible.
The library has a bottle of hand sanitzer at the circulation desk. Feel free to make use of it - for eveyone's health!
We also wipe down the computer keyboards each night. We ask that if you are sick - please stay home and get better. Materials can be renewed online or even over the phone if you need it.

Library Headphones
The library has made many changes over the summer that will hopefully better serve the patrons of the library. One of the changes that you might not have noticed is that the library will no longer provide headphones for the computers starting Fall Quarter.
This decision was made for health reasons. With the possiblity of illness spreading rather easy the library staff felt it was in the best interest of all patrons.
We hope that everyone is having a great start to the Fall Quarter and we hope that you will use the library services during the quarter.
