Members of the library staff were treated to a trip into the construction zone of 4th and 5th floors earlier today. We thought you might enjoy a brief peek behind the doors and into the future of the CSL renovations. For a close-up view of the pictures, click on one to start a slideshow gallery.
- You can see the Brew here, right? No? That’s because it is still a work in progress. To get your bearings, notice where the door to the “outside” is.
- Final decorative elements are being put into place on the north end of the 4th floor.
- Library staff gather outside the future home of the Reading/Writing Center.
- Looking north on 4th floor, through the new library instruction classroom/computer lab.
- In the future, this will be the 4th floor entrance to the “express” elevator between the 2nd floor lobby and 4th floor. For now, however, it is still just a concrete shaft.
- In the study table area outside the new library instruction classroom/computer lab on 4th.
- Before 4th floor is opened to the public, a glass wall will be installed between the 5th floor dining-room-to-be and the 4th floor study area.
- The view on 5th floor, looking toward the north end.
- At the center of the 4th floor, looking at one of marche dining stations.
- Library staff are gathered at the site of a future marche dining station.
- The lift at the center of this picture sits on the concrete covering the former atrium that existed between the 4th floor computer carousel and 5th floor.
