Vending Machines
Vending Machines
The library has three vending machines: a Pepsi machine, a snack machine, and a campus bookstore machine. None of these vending machines are owned by the library and thus there is nothing we can do if a patron has issues with one of the machines. During midterms and finals, the bookstore vending machine sees a lot more use as patrons purchase Scantrons and Blue Books for their tests. If a patron comes and complains that we don't have something, or it is out, direct them to the bookstore.
