During the last year, layouts for each library unit have been planned and an inventory of furniture and equipment have been made.

All materials will be moved on bookmovers, which are four-wheel dollies with shelves. None of the materials will be taken outside as they will be wheeled into the library through double access doors on each of the floors. Beard said that no heavy equipment will be used since this is completely an inside job. And even while all of this activity is taking place in the University’s most expensive, if not biggest, move, the library will continue to provide for library users. “We want to emphasize that the library will not be closed,” King said. “We will move the circulation department one night and have it ready for the following day.” King said librarians will get books or materials for anyone who needs them if they bring the call number to the circulation desk on the first floor of the library addition. Other services will also be provided on the first floor of the li brary addition with library staff members on hand to assist anyone who needs to use these services. The Automated Information Re trieval Service, microtext and maps will have service areas on the first floor during the move along the Interlibrary Services and the Copy Center. The reserve, reference and documents collections will be in temporary quarters on the first floor and collections that are to be located on the second floor such as current periodicals will be made available as early as possible during the move. After the move, remodeling will begin on the interior of the present facilities. Students and faculty will not be permitted in this area from the time the move begins until con struction is completed. During the six months it will take to complete this remodeling, work men will construct additional study carrels and install wall-to-wall car peting. When remodeling on the present building is completed, the tempo rary walls betyween it and the li brary addition will be removed and the building will function as one in tegral unit with access at the east entrance.
