This week has been a busy week. Our staff has done a great job moving circulation and reference to the first floor to make way for the final phase of the remodeling.


Here is the former location of the reference desk.

This is the area that used to house the open computers.

We are happy to see everything coming together. Phase 2, which includes the north half of the second floor, is moving along. Carpet is being laid. This means that Phase 3, which includes the south half of the second floor, will be next!

As the library’s remodeling enters it’s final “chapter,” the entrance to the library will temporarily move to the north side L Building. Beginning October 25th, students, staff and members of the public will enter the library through the L Building parking lot.

Due to the library’s remodeling, the library will be closed October 21st-24th. A temporary lab will be set up on Friday October 22nd from 8am-4pm where students can research. Regular library hours will resume Monday, October 25th.

The ladies and gentlemen working on the north side of the second floor have been painting and finishing up walls. Some of the lighting has been put in as well.

Today is a pretty big day, since we are preparing to move to the final phase of the library’s construction. A major part of this move is moving the open computer lab into its temporary loation on the second floor. This is a tough project, but our IT staff are in control.

Here are machines waiting to be moved.
