Does your group need a place where you can collaborate on that final project? The Library Annex just added two additional Group Study Rooms which can accommodate groups of 3 or more.
Coe Library offers group study rooms also, reserve one in person at the Circulation Desk.
Good news, researchers… the Library Annex now offers four study rooms for group work, presentation practice, or quiet study. Also new at the Annex, two laptops for checkout.
Here at Coe Library you can reserve two group study rooms with full technological support and checkout laptops as well. Ask at the Circulation Desk in either Coe or the Annex to reserve a room or borrow a laptop.
Happy studying!
Welcome back to campus everyone!
In good news, the Library Annex re-opens to the public today. Come visit your favorite journals and scientific books! The Annex is located underground between the Biological and Physical Sciences buildings.
Library Annex Hours:
Mark your calendars — the Library Annex reopens to the public in only 27 days!
In less than a month you can touch and feel all your favorite journals again — stop by after August 27th and browse the shelves as long as you like.
Good news! The Library Annex (former Science Library) will reopen to the public on August 27, 2007.
Right now the stacks remain closed as we complete installation of compact shelving and the transfer of bound periodicals from Coe Library to the Annex. All materials from the Library Annex are available via request. Journal articles will be copied and sent via email, books will be delivered to Coe within 2 hours for checkout.
(Update: to be clear, the 2 hour window for book delivery is during library hours. When the libraries are closed, there are no wee gnomes pulling books from the shelves and delivering them under darkness of night to Coe. Late night requests will be filled the following morning.)
Please let us know if you have questions, and we look forward to opening the Library Annex to you in August!
When the UW Libraries outfitted the Library Annex (formerly Science Library) with fancy new compact shelving, we stockpiled quite a surplus of old-school shelving. Librarian Helen Knudson at the Wind River Tribal College worked with us to take the recycled shelving to her library and put it to good use. Knudson is building her library from scratch and knows how to repurpose expensive materials.
12 shelving ranges were donated which will provide a total of 2,520 linear feet of shelving space for approximately 16,800 books. That’s a lot of shelves and a lot of math!
On March 1st, the UW Libraries begin moving bound periodicals published before 2006 (aka old print journals) to the Library Annex. Do not worry! These journals are still available for use. If the article you need is at the Library Annex, just fill out the electronic request form. Student workers will send you an electronic copy of the article you need, and they are super-speedy about it!
Moving journals to the Library Annex is all part of our ongoing planning process for the ILLC building project. Please contact us at 766-2070 or coeref@uwyo.edu if you have any questions or concerns about finding journals.
As we prepare for construction of the Information Library and Learning Center (IL2C), the former Science Library has been converted to a Library Annex. The facility is closed to the public until 2007 while we install new flooring and compact shelving to increase growth space for all UW Libraries collections.
Don’t fret that the Science Library is “closed” — you can still access all our science resources! Current science periodicals, the science reference collection, theses, microfilm, and most Science Library personnel have been permanently relocated to Coe Library. Remaining Science Library materials still housed in the Library Annex, such as bound journals and books, will be available via remote retrieval while the facility is closed. Patrons can request these materials via the UW Libraries website, email, or in person at the Coe Library circulation desk.
We apologize for any inconvenience this project will cause. Although we must keep the facility closed during its conversion to compact shelving, we are committed to providing timely access to any materials you request.
