Work on Hayden mezzanines begins July 31

Library will remain open during space improvements

Hayden Library will undergo abatement of its mezzanines this summer, scheduled to begin on Monday, July 31. The work is expected to be complete in 8 to 10 business days, and Hayden will remain open during the entire process. Green Environmental will oversee the project, and the work crew will be on site Monday through Friday, 7am to 4pm.

The work will primarily impact the first and second floors, and all five mezzanines on these floors. The mezzanines will be covered, but collections beneath the mezzanines will be made accessible. Please note that elevator access within Hayden will be somewhat limited and may vary throughout the scheduled work. If you need help accessing materials, visit the Hayden Information Desk.

Users may expect noise and other disruptions. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we work to improve the space.

Additional study spaces are available at our other library locations. Please contact hayden-space@mit.edu with any questions or comments.
