Bookshelf island moved… to make room for a sitting area….
New paint and rugs, improved lighting and a completely new pantry area give us a whole new look. We’ve also gotten some snazzy entry way furniture (matching black leather chairs and couch), created a swing space office for visiting scholars and a conference area in our reading room, and — near & dear to the heart of every M.L.S. graduate — we got our microfiche, foreign collections and superseded statutes in a more logical order. As every librarian know — collections tend to grow == and then wander!!

Benjamin Moore paint (Healing Aloe) adds an air of reserve to our surroundings, and a reconfigured reference desk and rearranged artwork has made for not only a better workspace but walls that tell our story.
We encourage members to email and schedule a visit. We look forward to seeing you — and showing off our “new” home ….
