10,000 items sent to storage each year due to space limitations
41 public CRUZCAT terminals
Both University library staff and patrons play a role in preserving and developing
the Library's collections. The Library team includes:
154 staff employees
23 UCSC Alumni
350 student employees
30 Librarians
When material is carefully preserved and protected in the library then its continued
availability can be assured. There were:
40,000 items added in 1997
313,374 items checked out in 1997
8,000 items donated last year
Over 11,000 items bound last year .
