The Widener crane is coming down over Thanksgiving break, but FAS construction on the massive library is just beginning.
The rest of the stack renovation will require constant shelving and reshelving on all 10 levels of the Widener stacks.
Widener Library
Humidity and temperature changes have been damaging to library materials stored in the 85-year-old structure. Renovations aim to upgrade the electrical, fire protection and security systems to preserve Widener's collections.
Most of the recent mechanical work has taken place on the D-level of Widener. Library staff removed seldomly-used volumes based on frequency of use and sent them to a depository, transferring the remaining volumes to Pusey Library.
