"Most of our staff have night shifts on a rotational schedule." William Crowe, dean of libraries, said at a public hearing of the Parking Department that a proposal to lift the evening restriction at the lot east of Fraser Hall beginning in August would conflict with scheduling of nighttime employees at Watson. The lot is now restricted until 7:30 p.m. "I believe this presents a great diffi- It is sometimes difficult for students to find assistance because staff members arrive late after searching for a parking space, Crowe said. Jim Neely, head of the reference department at Watson, said it was difficult for the staff to find spaces after 6 p.m. "We feel that in order to do our jobs properly we do need to be there at those hours, and we do need convenient and safe parking in the vicinity of Watson Library," he said. Crowed one solution would be to reserve spaces in the parking lot for Watson employees. He suggested that removable rear-view mirror passes be allotted to the library so that those working the night shift would always have a place to park. Donna Hultine, assistant director of parking, said that this was the first time this solution had been brought to the Regents but that it might not be very practical. "I think that if we did that we'd have a lot of other departments wanting it," she said. "It would end up being campus-wide." Hutline said the proposal of restricting the parking lot east of Blake Hall until 7:30 p.m. next semester would help accommodate the staff at Watson.
