Hard HatSouth Texas Archives and the Renovation of the Third Floor of the Library. Beginning in Summer 2008, the Library is experiencing a period of renovation that may last some months.  The South Texas Archives, long housed in Baugh Hall, will move to the third floor of the Jernigan Library.  This will necessitate shifting of stacks, construction of a suitable environment for archival materials, and the moving of materials from Baugh Hall to the Jernigan Library.  During part of this process, selected areas of the third floor (specifically the stack areas) may be closed to the public; please ask for assistance from library personnel during times when stack areas are closed to the public.  In addition, the South Texas Archives will also be closed for part of this transition period.  The Library regrets any inconvenience these changes necessitate.

The Technology Learning Center (TLC) is moving to the 2nd floor of the library to make space for the South Texas Archives.  The TLC will merge with a new academic support unit, the Center for Teaching and Learning.  THE TLC WILL BE CLOSED UNTIL THIS TRANSITION IS COMPLETED.  

Equipment loan requests are not currently being accepted by the TLC.  When this service resumes, equipment loan transactions will take place at the Circulation Desk.  Appropriate secure storage must be built and all equipment added to the library’s catalog be for equipment loans will resume.  Existing circulation staff will handle equipment loan transactions.
