The new site will be the library's homepage as of June 15th. We've tweaked the new site to add a big "Back to the Old Site" button at the bottom of the homepage.

Please bear with us. http://library.umf.maine.edu/about_library/new/news.php Wed, 26 Mar 2009 18:37:00 GMT We're pleased to announce the creation of an RSS News Feed for Mantor Library. Now you can get the latest information on the website updates as they come in, without having to come to the website to get them. We hope to add sections to the news feed in the future, as well. http://library.umf.maine.edu/about_library/new/news.php Wed, 25 Mar 2009 18:37:00 GMT Our Help Page is up and running. It's fairly basic at this point, but we plan on expanding it in the future. Tell us if you have suggestions! In addition, we've added a link on the homepage so you can see all our ads at once--no more having to wait for them to cycle through for you to find the link you're looking for. Just look for the +see all link right above the rotating ads on the left. See the index of ads here.
