Scott Elevator Maintenance shutdown May 5-20, 2011
Please be advised that the elevator in Scott Library will be shut down on the morning of May 5 and will remain out of service for up to two weeks to allow for major preventative maintenance of key component. We have tried to arrange to have the work done at a time when there would be the least demand on the elevator.
We are currently working out logistics and contacts for accommodation for users with disabilities who require access library materials or study spaces.
We will provide more detail as soon as it becomes available.
