  7. Survey Responses – Open Ended Be able to pull up pdfs from an EBSCO search. If I could do this I would use it daily. Love the computer map. Super helpful! Would be nice to be able to pay a fine and renew a book simultaneously. Need to be able to quickly navigate quickly for the first time user …it was frustrating. I hate it. It’s not very user friendly.

  8. Survey Responses – What do they want? Renew interlibrary loan. See what study rooms are available. Get help from someone! Access to account would be great. Easier access to internet files. Select from multiple options in drop-down list. It is very bland and basic. Make the search bar more prominent.
