Improvisation

Things haven't gone quite as planned with the new furniture:


There was a mishap with our scheduling and, as a result, Moving and Hauling couldn't come to remove our old furniture on Wednesday as planned. The new furniture was still suppose to arrive Thursday morning, so we needed to find somewhere to put it all. While we have the ability to shove it all in the DCR, we had to keep in mind that we must be able to get the old stuff out somehow on Monday.

We kept the listening equipment in the Reading Room and moved most of the new tables in between our study carrels. Two extra tables are in the foyer and about 30 chairs are in Jessica Mirasol's, our archivist, workroom.

Needless to say, a few services are still unavailable. Our computer lab and printing capabilities are down. There simply wasn't anywhere to set them up. We suggest using the Web or Art Library labs instead.

Otherwise, we fully up and running. Feel free to come in to study, check items out or just test out the new chairs - they're much more comfortable than the old ones!

My personal favorite is the picture with all the chairs stacked in my office and the Terrible Towel hanging in the background!!
