Construction Updates From Scott Miller

Media and Gov. Docs duct work has begun on the ground floor.
New England Air will be cleaning the first floor in zones. Zone 1 will start on the 19th, but possibly the 18th. They will begin down the main corridor by the bath rooms. Zone 2 is the reference desk and the stacks. Zone 3 is the Reference offices. Zone 4 will displace the main office, systems, catalogers and serials. Even though NEAS is splitting this floor in zones everyone should be ready to move out as early as the 18th and not move back until NEAS is done. Have all fragile items put in drawers or under desks. All plants should be moved out of harms way. All desks will be covered in plastic. Each zone should be given two to three days for duct cleaning. With hole patching and cleanup to follow. End date to be determined.
When they start cleaning, the Bailey side will be closed to the public until the cleanup and patching are done. Staff will have some access to their desks. Make sure your computers are off when they get covered in plastic.
On a separate note: The road behind the Library will be closed for paving on the 18th and 19th. With line striping on the 20th. And it will be closed on the 26th for a Presidential Ribbon cutting at the Steam Plant.
