a random quote

i saw this quote on another blog (referring to the library at Siam University), but i thought it sounded like something our own library clients will be saying when we complete the renovation!

"i like to go to library everyday because i feel
quite comfortable with the good facilities"

a most (in)significant journey

the last carrels to escape the demolition crew travels to the far ends of the 3rd floor to join it's brothers and sisters.

don't try this at home

crouch staffers take a surfing break from rigorous moving

the lonely service desk

the service desk is cleared and dismantled so it can be moved for flooring work

goodbye carrels, pt. 1

the last hurrah for the old listening carrels

goodbye carrels, pt. 2

goodbye carrels, pt. 3

how do you like our new service desk?

Brenda test drives our new "service desk." our real one is being dismantled and moved so the new flooring can go down.

monday clearing

an army of movers, haulers, and shakers came in today and cleared the floor in preparation for the painters and floorers (is that a word?). painters begin tomorrow and the existing flooring (what's left of it!) should come out this week.
