Library Entrances Move Temporarily

Library Director Brian Beecher points to the temporary LLC entrance to the south of the Main West entrance.

See – I told you there was a door here. Next week, we’ll have signs galore!

The Library & Learning Commons Lobby will be renovated during the first Summer session, with work starting Saturday, April 28th.  That means the regular east and west 1st-floor lobby entrances to the LLC will be closed.

During the expected 6 weeks of renovation and remodeling, please enter the LLC using the (usually) emergency door on the west side of the building between the main west entrance and the bridge to the Main Parking Lot.

Watch for the signs (coming soon).  We’re going to be here – please visit!
