The sky is falling !

Well no, not really. But over the weekend, there were some serious water leaks in the Library. They were not the result of snowmelt, as you might expect, but rather a failure of the HVAC system. In a number of places on the East side of the building, water built up behind the ceiling tiles and brought them down, resulting in a big mess. Our hard-working staff dealt with it at once, so the water and debris have been cleaned up by now.

In a few places you will still see tarps or plastic sheets over the stacks, mainly as a precaution in case the HVAC system is not quite finished leaking. If you need access to materials under cover, feel free to ask the folks at the Circ Desk for help.

We apologize for the mess and noise during the weekend hours, and for any disturbance as repair work continues.
