During the erection of the steel portion of the staircase (estimated\nto be around June 27-July 8), the public side of Level B will be inaccessible\nfrom 7am-3pm. During that time collections in that space will be unavailable\nand we will set up a paging system after 3pm. We will be adding noise cancelling\nheadphones into circulation. The Q Center will be closing after finals to begin\ntheir relocation to the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> floor and will be looking for alternative\nspace over the summer. The W Center will be looking at their hours for when\nthey reopen in June to try and work around the construction schedule. Bookworms\nwill be closed all summer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alternative Work Arrangements<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are working on a temporary locations for staff during periods of increased noise that will include conference rooms, classrooms, and workspaces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are getting closer to the end of the semester which means we are getting closer to the start of the stairwell construction!
