• Will all library services still be available?

  • Yes, with two exceptions: there are no Group Study Rooms in the temporary location and there is no book drop. Library materials can be returned at the Library Information Desk during regular business hours. Other primary services and relocated areas are listed below:

• How do I get books and other library materials during the renovation?

  • The UCBA Library print collection (books, media, journals) is only accessible to library staff during the renovation. You can request materials at the Library Information Desk in 112K and a library staff member will retrieve them for you. All materials that leave the Library Information Desk must be checked out even if for short-term use.
    
    UCBA students, staff and faculty can still request available library materials from other UC Libraries and OhioLINK (see Information section on our website). Items will be delivered to our temporary location and be available on our holdshelf behind the Library Information Desk in 112K.

• Can I still bring food and covered beverages into the Library?

  • Covered beverages are allowed; however, due to the small space and our proximity to the computer concourse *food is not allowed* in the Library’s temporary space. You may enjoy food again in the new UCBA Library space in the summer of 2013.
