    Closing the Gaps

    This program was created in 2003 in an attempt to extend the operating hours of Milner Library. Thanks to the assistance of several student volunteers, recruited by the Association, it has been a huge success. Volunteers spend their time in the library restocking shelves, attending to the front desk, monitoring the computer lab, and other associated tasks.

    Milner Library is currently looking for volunteers to work between the hours of 8:00 am and 4:30 pm Monday through Friday. They are looking for individuals able and willing to work from 2 to 5 hours a week. If you or a group you are apart of are interested in doing service hours at Milner Library, volunteers are always needed at any time. For more information or if you are interested in volunteering, contact Programs Director at SGAUL@ilstu.edu SGAUL@ilstu.edu SGAUL@ilstu.edu SGAUL@ilstu.edu SGAUL@ilstu.edu SGAUL@ilstu.edu SGAUL@ilstu.edu SGAUL@ilstu.edu.

  • University of Massachusetts/Boston (UMass Boston) - USG Chair, Budget and Finance, 09-10

    1. Extended library hours
    The University of Massachusetts Boston, as a commuter school with no housing, has limited library hours. Due to a $100 million budget shortfall and lack of support from the state, the university is on its second year of emergency cuts mandated by the state. One of the victims of these cuts is the Healey Library. The library hours have been cut back heavily, to the point where students are being removed in the early afternoon on saturdays. Sundays the library is closed completely. The student government is using the student activities trust fund to extend library hours on certain days the week prior to and the week of finals. The library will be open until the early morning on critical study days with computer and book stack access. Shuttle buses to local transit will also be extended. This highly visible signature program hopes to be beneficial to the every day student and the working class, who do not always have the days to devote to studying.
