Renovations at the J. William Horsey Library to increase our shelving capacity are underway. The work involves the installation of mobile shelving on the whole south side of the library’s lower level. A large part of our book collection classified from BR to BX is now in storage and will be inaccessible until mid-August.
While the entire lower level is closed to the public during the renovation, materials remaining on the lower level shelves will be retrieved upon request by library staff between 9-5 Monday to Friday. These materials include, books classified from C-Z, periodicals and pamphlets. A section of shelving has been designated on the upper level for new books, books needed for summer courses and books returned from circulation.
The following materials are unaffected by the renovation: Books classified from A-BQ, Audio visuals, microforms, reference materials and electronic resources.
The Library is a wonderful place to visit this summer. Come to read, study and research in air conditioned comfort.

Thank you for your patience during the current renovations in the main library. The installation of new windows on the lower level is almost complete. Starting Tuesday Feb. 2, the heavy work moves upstairs with the replacement of windows and installation of air conditioning. We expect that the most disruption and noise will occur this week. People who wish to study in the library will be most comfortable on the lower level beginning Tuesday. Just a reminder that on Tuesday Feb. 2, the library will be closed 11:45 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Well the renovations are continuing in the library. Today we were closed for a couple hours around chapel time in the middle of the day. The guys working for Berkim Construction worked really fast and even clean up after themselves! They were tearing down part of the ceiling near the library entrance to make way for the air conditioning. What’s next? The windows. The lower level is first. That will be happening this week. Let’s pray for some warm weather! I really appreciate everyone’s cooperation. We still have some cold temps and noise to get through, but once it is done we will be basking in the glorious result! Yes, things will get better if we endure.
Thanks for your patience everyone!

The Library renovations with installation of new windows and air conditioning is continuing. Please note that the library will be closed:
Tuesday Jan 26, 2010, 10:30 am to 12:45 pm and
Tuesday Feb 2, 2010, 11:45 am to 2 pm
We regret the inconvenience that this causes, but we anticipate that you will enjoy the end result.

The air conditioning on the lower level of the main library is being installed. This means some noise and dust on the lower level. You may retrieve items from the stacks but may prefer to study on the upper level while all of this is going on.

The J. William Horsey Library will be undergoing renovations in 2010. We will be installing new windows and air conditioning to provide a more suitable atmosphere for our community and our books. The improvements are scheduled to begin January 18 on the lower level of the library and may result in some interruption of library services. Please check here for the latest news and updates.
