Library refurbishment noise, early December

Try alternatives if you hear work on the other side of hoarding walls.

Please be aware that you may hear drilling throughout the day on the south (sunny/Pepper Lane) side of the Library during early December. This is due to essential survey work to prepare the now hoarded-off staircase for demolition, before we create a new lift shaft here.

Do remember that, as outlined in October’s post and emails sent to all students by University Communications, you can find study space on the opposite side of the Library, The Study at TOB2, The Study or elsewhere across campus using the Free Room Finder and list of alternative space.

Further information on our Library refurbishment project can be found at www.reading.ac.uk/library/refurb. A project of this scale means that noisy works will be unavoidable at times although the loudest phases of work will cease by 10:00am.
