Preview of upcoming changes to Library home page
Unfortunately, we have had to scale back our plans for making changes to the design of the Library home page.
Instead, we will be limiting ourselves to making a few small changes to the content displayed in the current design.
Specifically:
Math Collection housed in the Edward Rosenthall Library to move this summer
The Department of Mathematics and Statistics will be transforming the former Library space on the 11th floor of Burnside Hall over the upcoming year in order to meet the teaching and learning needs of students and faculty. To facilitate this space transformation, the Â鶹AV Library will relocate the library collection and merge this material with the rest of the math and statistic collections currently housed in other branch libraries.
