By sharing one system, we&#8217;ll improve the research experience for our students and faculty and better manage all of our resources.<\/p>\n<h3>Questions?<\/h3>\n<p>Ask us at <a href=\"https:\/\/info.library.reed.edu\/ask\/\">https:\/\/info.library.reed.edu\/ask\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New Library System &#8211; A Brief Introduction New Library System &#8211; Introduction (Click to open in a new window\/tab).
