The Library is actually two buildings joined together &#8211; Library 1 in front faces the concourse and Library 2 at the rear faces the pond. From this time the Library will operate out of Library 2, with a new temporary entrance created to access that building.&nbsp; We will also be setting up some other Library study spaces on campus as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are in the middle of planning where things will go, so we\u2019ll be able to provide more details later in the year. &nbsp;In the meantime, you will be starting to see movements of our print collections as we prepare them for relocation into Library 2 and to our off-site storage elsewhere on campus. This will involve books being moved to different parts of the Library and shelves being respaced. If you have trouble locating an item please ask at the service point on Level 1. We will also be doing some of the works to create a new entrance over the summer semester when fewer people are using the building.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many thanks to our Manawat\u016b students and staff who joined the architects in discussions on the proposed plans in May.
