The Hayden Reading Room is undergoing renovation work this summer. Construction is scheduled to begin after closing on Friday, May 21, at 7pm.

The construction work will be rolled out in two phases. Phase I begins Monday, May 24 and continues until Thursday, July 1. Phase II will begin shortly thereafter and continue through August.

During the project portions of the collections on the first floor will not be browsable. Use Barton’s Request button to have them retrieved for you. We will also retrieve materials on-demand if you’re already in the library.

If you have further questions regarding access to materials, do so online or see the Hayden desk staff.
