Exciting Changes in Lindell Library
Come check out the new, cool mobile shelves on the Lower Level of Lindell Library. All of the books which were located on the Link Level were moved this summer to the new shelving. So the Lower Level now has twice the number of volumes! Amazing!
Watch (and listen to the construction noises) for the new Gage Center for Student Success, coming in October to the Link Level! Exciting!
