SUL staff will be busy this summer moving out of Meyer Library and into Lathrop Library. Here’s a brief summary of what will be happening.

South Stacks Move
The preliminary collections moves out of Meyer Library began Thursday, June 12, 2014, and the South Stacks collections shift to SAL beginning this coming Monday, June 16.  Access to the South Stacks will be restricted at that time, with the collections fenced off, as movers will be active in the space.  Collections in the space will be accessible by Access Services, who will be on call to address patron requests.  A phone has been installed at the entrance to the South Stacks to allow patrons to easily contact the loan desk, and signs will be posted throughout the area. If you know of patrons who use South Stacks collections regularly, please feel free to share information about the closure.  If you have questions about materials in the South Stacks, please contact Rebecca Pernell.
