1. BOOKS AT SEA-LEVEL HAVE ALREADY BEEN MOVED TO THE NEW LIBRARY SPACE
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The SLO library books have been placed in the new library room on the sixth
floor of our sea-level base. They have been sorted according to their
topographic signature, as they were before. ASP Conference Series, IAU
Symposia, SPIE publications, technical reports, annual reports and technical
publications from our observatory and others are also there. Most of these
items are in the library's book catalogue (except the technical reports
and annual reports which are periodicals). Remember that the book catalogue
is on-line and accesssible through the library's web pages. The old library
space will be dedicated to store the periodicals (journals, newsletters,
magazines, etc) collection. Please let me know if you find problems in
accessing the books in their new location.
2. SUBSCRIPTIONS NEWS
---------------------
- First issue of the recently started subscription to 'Astronomy Now'
magazine has already arrived. This magazine is displayed at the SLO library.

of them can be borrowed as usual unless they are placed in a non-borrowing
