Students used to finding the Arts Library in Dickson Art Center
will now find an empty room ““ the library now resides in the
Public Policy building.
The library officially opened in its new, permanent digs on July
5. Though in a smaller area than its previous location, it lost no
book stacks and will continue to provide existing services.
“We’re pretty much functioning in the same matter as
we did in Dickson,” said Gordon Theil, head of the Arts
Library.
Moving allowed several expansions for the library, including
network connections for laptop computers and a new multipurpose
conference room which can be used as a classroom.
Theil added that the library is now in a more centralized
location to its users. Moving south from the northernmost building
on campus makes it more accessible to the art history and
architecture departments, he said.
The new Arts Library is located at 1400 Public Policy. It is
accessible through the southern entrance adjacent to LuValle
Commons. Operating hours remain the same and can be found at
