News release

From the University Library

30 June 2008

Summer moves 23 June - 31 August 2008

To prepare for the transfer of collections from the Biomedical Sciences Library in 2009, the Hartley Library is re-organising some areas of stock. The main area affected is Level 1, but all floors may see some minor moves.

While we will aim to keep any disturbance to a minimum, we apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause and would recommend that other floors are used for study purposes.

On Level 1 the following work will take place throughout the summer:

  • Current Periodical collection will be disbanded
  • Periodicals offered to the UK Research Reserve will be extracted
  • Back runs of periodicals will consolidated to release space for additional seating (Per A area)
  • Map Library will be installed beside microfiche/microfilm area
  • Teaching practice library will move to release space for additional seating

On Level 3 there is some movement of stock in the Law area.

On Level 5 there is some re-organising of stock (PN-PQ ) to accommodate the current collection.

Updates will be posted as work is completed. Thank you for your co-operation.
