The Ms in the Main Library: The Ms in the Main Library are being shifted from the 7th floor to their new home on the 2nd floor. More changes are coming, but this is the first. If you’re looking for something and can’t find it, please ask at the Reference Desk and someone will go up with you to look. Also, signs will provide more information. If you’re faculty, this is a good time to make use of the faculty delivery option and have materials delivered to the CML or River’s Crossing. Stay tuned for other news about what’s where in the Main Library.
