With a sign on the Circulation service desk on Sunday, Dec.10th, 2006, Polk Library quietly began an experimental free coffee bar during finals week for students pulling ‘all-nighters.’
Five days later, we had made approximately 988 cups of coffee.
And, we exceeded last fall's total for All Night Study users by 336! Our grand total was 2,368.
So we are going to assume that our coffee experiment was a success by the numbers and the smiles. Quite possibly we’ll try that again in Spring.
Never having to buy coffee supplies we had to guess what the demand would be.
We used:
5 large cans of coffee
12 pounds of sugar
2 1/2 large creamers
700 coffee cups
1 large pkg. napkins
5 pkgs. stir sticks
