WHY?

In response to a recent flooding and equipment failure, the Healey Library needs to undertake on short notice a number of important collection and service moves and construction in the coming weeks and months.

These necessary shifts and relocation moves started on Monday, April 7, and the areas of the Healey Library most affected by these disruptions will be the 4th and 5th floors.

We appreciate your patience and we apologize for any noise or inconvenience during this period of change!
