Library Construction Update

Here is a quick update on the law library construction projects:

Staff Elevator Access Project: The doors to the elevator corridors have been hung and will be painted this week. The doors have their locks disabled (taped over the latch) and are not activated. If the door is shut, just push on it and it should open. The elevator still needs to be switched over to card access so this project should last at least a few more weeks.

We are using fans during the painting, but if the paint fumes seem more overwhelming in a specific area, please let library staff know so we can re-direct fan circulation.

Stack Lighting Project: The 1st floor study tables are in the process of having their wiring updated and better task lighting should result. Next, the stack lighting will be re-wired and undergo timing changes. This means brighter lighting for longer periods of time. The stack rewiring will start on 4th floor and work down. This project will last the next several months.

During these periods of library construction, expect more noise in the work areas. We have posted signs alerting to any possible disruption, but feel free to contact library staff with any questions or concerns during these projects. The main contacts are Paula Seeger (612-625-1547) and Suzanne Thorpe (612-625-0187). Thanks for your patience and cooperation.
