No Library Service During Move For many years we have noted a heavy demand for library service during the Christmas Holidays. Numerous visiting scholars combine a vacation in Salt Lake City with research in our collections. Also, our own gradúate students seem to bare down on their library research during the holiday schedule. After careful consideration of these needs weighed against the urgency of moving the total collections in 12 working days, we have concluded to deny service to everyone during the period from December 14th, 5:00 p.m. to January 2nd, 7:30 a.m. |
