  • Our Electronic Classroom is not available during construction. All Express Training Classes will be held in the Fletcher Room (2nd floor of the library). Just ask at the HUB desk (front desk) if you’re not sure where to go.
  • There will be no access to the Ground floor until at least mid-summer. If you normally study on the Ground floor, check out the second or first floors. The second floor is quiet and additional carrels and tables will be placed on the first floor.
  • Our print journals from 1995+ will be moved from the Ground floor to remote storage. Many of these are available online. However, if you need an article in one of these journals, please just submit a request. (See our FAQ that explains how to place a request.) Our Interlibrary Loan staff hope to deliver requested articles to you electronically within 24 hours.

More information will be provided as this transition progresses. If you have comments/suggestions regarding the Ground floor construction project, please let us know!
