While students were on break this week, the librarians were on the job...and got some pictures of the work being done in the library by the tireless construction crews!
An updated shot of the front - the entrance is framed by the inside timbers. The program space will be the large area to the left, the cafe to the right.
From the "inside." The small ladder is in the cafe, the taller ladder is in the program space.
Looking out. The walls along the entry, with beautiful southern yellow pine timbers, will hold display cases of various sizes for the Library's art collection.
Looking down the gallery, toward where the main desk will be.
You will find study spaces of all kinds in our renovated space. This is a seating area on the main level (see the "old" column on the right side of the picture?), beyond which will be an enclosed study room with a beautiful view out over the hill.
More group study rooms, large and small, that you will find on the lower level.
Even President Douglas is excited by the progress! We are eagerly anticipating our re-opening in January!
