Effective Monday, August 18, PASCAL Delivers service will be reduced from 5-days to 3-days per week.

Pickups and deliveries will occur at all participating libraries on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.*   Librarians needing additional information regarding operational and policy changes should consult the PASCAL Delivery and Universal Borrowing resource page on the PASCAL website.  (Requires Password)

 

This 40% reduction in service was made necessary due to the 90% reduction in state funding for PASCAL programs.  At the present time, we will be able to maintain this scaled-back delivery schedule through June 30, 2009.

_{*Exceptions are USC-Columbia, Clemson and College of Charleston.  R.R. Donnelley, our delivery service contractor has offered to continue to pick up materials at these high volume provider institutions every week-day in spite of the reduced contract.}
