This change will give the library a smaller physical presence and accelerate the shift to a more electronic and interactive library. Although a core set of books will be kept to maintain the research library, many books will have to be removed in order to make space. From now until Friday, June 10, staff and users may come to the Library in order to check out books on admin-loan status that might otherwise be discarded.
