Olin Library Stacks Not All Open

If you, your Administrative Assistant, or your Research Assistants are headed up to Olin Library for library materials, the trip may not be instantly rewarding.  Olin is in the midst of a Fire Safety Improvements Project, which means various floors of the library and certain collections will not be accessible.


For specifics on the status of collections at Olin, check their schedule online, as well as the latest updates.


In the closed areas, the materials are still available but library staff will have to get them for you.  They will retrieve materials once a day, Mondays through Fridays, after 2:00 pm.  No weekend retrievals.


To avoid a wasted trip, remember that many books can be sent to you here at the Law Library from Olin (and other libraries on campus).  When you find the item in the online catalog, click “Requests” at the top of the screen and complete the information, selecting LAW as the library to which you want it sent.  And as always, you can request that the Law Library staff get the materials for you.


Pardon the dust while safety improvements are underway!
