Library Move Update for Faculty and Staff

The Information Services staff is working hard to complete the library renovation project, and in order to move into our new building, the Library will be closed from December 5th through 9th.

During that week, Circulation, Reference, and Media Services will be available via email for assistance with Winter Quarter class preparation and Reserve readings. Library staff will deliver MeLCat and ILL materials that arrive that week to your offices. You may return materials to the new drop box on the Academy Street side of the Library. Reference materials will move during Finals Week (November 28th to December 2nd). Please let us know if you will need access to Reference materials any time during that week, and we will retrieve them for your use. If you have additional needs, please contact us by December 5th and we will work with you.

During the actual move, the HelpDesk will be closed for five hours on Thursday, December 8th, from 10 to 3 p.m.

Circulation, Reference, Help Desk and Media Desk will be open in the new Upjohn Library Commons from December 12th through the 22nd. The Registrar is scheduling classes in the Library for Winter Quarter!

The new Upjohn Library Commons will open officially on January 3rd, 2006! We invite you to tour the new building on December 2nd, from 2 to 4 pm, the same day as the Hodge House Holiday Party. Please come by for a preview of the building on your way to the Holiday Party, which begins at 3 and goes until 5 pm.

Thank you,

Lisa Palchick and the Information Services staff
