You can see all books reserve here or by going to MMC > Inside MMC > Course Reserves. Professors make individual decisions regarding reserve books, but there's nothing wrong with a polite inquiry.
I Need a Work-Study Job
If you are work-study eligible, email Circulation Manager Jon Arevalo (jarevalo@mmm.edu) and Media Coordinator Jordan Horsley (jhorsley@mmm.edu) with your resume and the times you're available to work.
Media Center jobs involve moving equipment, setting it up, breaking it down, checking it out and making sure all the parts are checked back in. Circulation jobs involve checking out reserves and also checking out and troubleshooting laptops and printers. You may apply for either or send the same email to both Jon and Jordan.

HOW DO I PRINT?
If the file you wish to print is online, you can access it via a library desktop and touch Control + P. If this doesn't work, or you're using a laptop, make sure the file is up-load-able and that it's saved in .docx or .pdf. Go to MMC > Inside MMC > Online Printing, and log in with your screen name and password. (You may also need to use your One Login credentials) Follow the prompts. If it doesn't work, try breaking a large document into small ones. or see a librarian.
You're welcome to Zoom in the lower level of the library. However, please be aware that one popular place, the lower-level Library Conference Room can be reserved using MMC's Ad Astra booking system (mmm.edu\reservations).

I Need Sources for a Paper
You can IM the reference librarians via LibChat; a good way to ask which database is best for which project, or to let the librarians know something does not seem to be working. You can also send an email to the reference staff via Ask a Librarian; describe your project and a reference librarian will recommend databases as soon as they can research them. You can also come by the library. One of the reference librarians is available every day of the week, during business hours Monday through Friday and during the afternoon Saturday and Sunday.
