Wellington Library will be closed from 5pm, Thursday the 28th of November for some very loud, very dusty construction.  We’re sorry for the inconvenience; if you need a place to study, 5E22 has 38 quiet spaces and the computer labs 5C14 and 5C15 will be open. At this stage, we’re not sure when we’ll reopen but it will be either 8 am Monday the 2nd of December, or 8 am Tuesday the 3rd of December. We’ll keep you posted through the Library website.  In the meantime, please email the Library staff at library@massey.ac.nz or give us a call on 0800 MASSEY, and keep your eyes on the prize – lovely shiny spaces at the end of the construction!...Read more
