2. SULAIR Emergency Information Page
We have established a new Library Emergency Information Page within the Information Center (IC) site. There are also links to the Library Emergency Information Page in both the Highlights section of the main library Web site and on the home page of the IC site. In the event that there is new information regarding University or Library closures, or news for staff, we will post that information on the Library Emergency Information Page.
This new page will be easier to update and maintain than our earlier emergency page. If you were maintaining links to the old, static page, please update them.
Please be assured that at this time, there is no declared health emergency on the Stanford campus. If you would like general information on the Influenza A (H1N1) outbreak, please see the Swine Flu Information Blog post on the IC site or the Stanford University Communications site.

Please contact your supervisor if you are interested. Carmelita Quiambao, quiambao@stanford.edu, will be organizing the tour groups and furnishing directions.
