Welcome to The Ames Library at 蘑菇传媒!

We are excited to welcome you to the library, where students can walk in with questions and curiosity and connect with any of us here at The Ames Library - librarians, library staff, Writing Center tutors, the Action Research Center, and Information Technology Services. All of us are here to answer questions, to connect students to the resources they need to excel and thrive, all to fulfill the mission and vision of Illinois Wesleyan University. The power of the library lies with its people: those who seek out expertise and those who share it.

We're working on putting together presentations for two major projects: what we learned from the AI Literacy interviews with students and faculty, and results from the MISO Survey. Both projects took place in Spring 2026, and we've been reviewing responses over the summer and early fall. Both will inform our planning moving forward in the areas of information literacy, collections, technology, and the library spaces.

One message we hear loud and clear from students (as well as faculty and staff) was deep concern about our library hours, especially on the weekends. For background of why we changed our hours last year, please read the "," in the Argus, and please don't hesitate to directly with questions and concerns.

I continue to be grateful for the opportunity and the responsibility of leading The Ames Library. Thank you for making the library a fantastic place to work! Don't forget to follow us on Instagram (@theameslibrary) for updates and news!

All the best,

Stephanie Davis-Kahl
University Librarian
