Studer Cases Moved From North Hallway

In early June, Lois Longenecker and Joe Smith (summer crew) emptied the glass cases in the north hallway. Don Steider, Matt Tschetter and Joe moved the cabinets down the old library stairwell and into the east room of the new library basement storage area. Lois and Joe then filled the cabinets with Studer Bibles.

The old library bookstack area is now divided into two large rooms with a hallway in between that connects to the original entrance. The east room will be used for closed storage of library materials. The gold shelving now in the old library reading room will eventually be erected in this room. Some old library tables in this area will to provide space for sorting and organizing. Cataloged materials that are kept in this storage area will be identified in the online catalog and may be requested from a librarian.

This room will normally not be open for public use. However, researchers may be given permission to work in the room on special projects.
