The Journal move on Level 4 is now complete; all back-runs have now been relocated to the Research Reserve at Team Valley. Work is now concentrating on Level 3 with the Per 700s, Per 800s and Per 900s moving over the next week and a half. Per 700 and 720 have already been packed and moved.
The excess shelving will be dismantled on Levels 3 and 4 and bright new study spaces will be created which will be ready for the start of term.
Work is continuing on level 4. This week we’ll be working on PER 630, then PER 650, PER 660, PER 669 and PER 690. This will complete the relocation of periodicals from Level 4. Then work will transfer back to level 3 where PER 700, PER 720, PER 780, PER 800, PER 870, PER 900, PER 910 and PER 913 will move. This includes the Fine Art periodicals and some Architecture journals in the SAPL room. If you need to request any material which has moved, please use the online form or ask at any of our information or service desks.
Work on moving journals in the Walton Library has now been completed. This week we’re resuming work on level 4 of the Robinson Library, as we move the PER 620 journals. Please continue to use our online form to request material which has moved or ask at any of our information or service desks.
The shelving installation at Team Valley is now complete. In addition to shelving for books and journals, the installation also includes picture racking (below).
Work is continuing in the Robinson Library on Levels 4 and 1 week, as we move the PER 530 (Physics) and PER 540 (Chemistry) journals. This work will take all week, so, again, Level 3 is likely to be the quietest place to study.
This week, the journal move is continuing exclusively on Level 4 in the Robinson Library. Journals at PER 510 (Maths), PER 518 (Computing), PER 519 (Statistics) are boxed and in transit and work is now commencing on the PER 520 (Astronomy and Astrophysics) and PER 530 (Physics) journals.
If you’re looking for somewhere quiet to work, please try Level 3, or the areas furthest away from the journals on Level 4.
The Level 2 cluster is being refurbished this summer.
As the area looks now, with computers and desks removed…
And an impression of how the cluster will look once the refurbishment is complete
