Update on the Curriculum Laboratory, June 19th: We are "open for business" as usual, after the library flood a few weeks ago. All our teaching areas are available, and all our materials can be signed out, and returned, as usual.
If you wonder what parts of the main Library collection are available, here is a map for your viewing enjoyment.
