Great progress has been made in the library renovation project this week. In this photo you can see the base of the new reading room display case waiting to be installed.
In fact things are so far along that the demolition wall, erected to protect the stacks from the construction noise and dust, is being removed.
This picture taken from the stairwell shows part of the sprinkler system.
The shelves in the Palmer Room ready to be refinished.
Behind the plastic sheeting the woodwork in the Palmer Room is getting a total makeover.
Working in the compact storage area. The tracks for the shelving units are in place.
The glass wall--marked with blue masking tape--is in place. Through the glass you can see the very large wooden display case intened for the wall leading to the Haines Room. Assembled offsite, it will now take eight men to place it into the wall. It weighs about 600 pounds.
Carefully putting the display case into the wall.
In the meanwhile, the really dirty and very noisy work of demolishing the entrance to the library continues under the hot sun.
