8/9/10 Update
8/9/10 – The following is planned for this week:
Second floor:
• Installation of the corridor wall
Basement:
Close to the end of the week the basement stacks will become inaccessible except to designated Access Services staff for paging at a specified time on business days at the end of the construction day. The material in the basement includes microforms, as well as material in the call number ranges J-N in regular and compact shelving. Please note that paging from the compact shelving will be on a different schedule when the sprinklers are installed over those particular areas. Note that Phase 3 includes key traffic corridors to elevators, stairs and the loading dock. The contractor plans to maintain access to and from the tunnel during business hours. At least one elevator will be operational at all times. At some point the basement rest rooms will be closed.
