Classes may not be in session in January, but that does not mean all is quiet within the walls of Langsdale Library. During the break, the 4th floor is being renovated so that our Special Collections department can use most of the floor for its collections.




And while you may not be able to enjoy the 4th floor while the walls are being moved around, you can come into our 2nd floor and enjoy the comfy chairs (equipped with a swing table for your books or a laptop) that arrived last semester.
