The library is replacing some
worn carpeting beginning
February 13 and finishing up by February 24. The bulk of the project will be handled after hours therefore the impact will be minimal. However, you may find some things have been moved temporarily. Reference librarians are available to help you find materials if they are out of order. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
