Library Carpeting Project - (1/3 - 1/18)

Mon, 10 Dec 2012 15:38:46 -0500

Services on the first floor of the Library will be relocated and, hopefully, not significantly disrupted, while contractors replace the carpet, beginning Thursday, January 3, and continuing through Friday, January 18, 2013. Computers will be removed from the area beginning January 2 but will continue to be available on floors 2-7 and in the RLC. Please watch for signs directing users to temporary service locations. All Library services will continue during the carpeting project. Printing service will continue to be available in the RLC and on the 2nd and 7th floors. Scanning service will be available on the 2nd floor. The Technology Support Center will be located in room 216.

In preparation for the carpet installation, public computers on the 1st floor will be moved to the Gallery for storage beginning on Dec. 20.

The Library carpet was installed in 1995. Now 17 years old, it has survived longer than expected, especially considering the high traffic on the first floor. It will now be replaced with carpet tile of similar design and color to the carpet tile which was recently installed on the 7th floor.
