Renovation News The Genealogical Services area will soon become Phase 2 of the Renovation Project for the A&H/ State Library building. Although we will be reopening in December, seating will be limited so that group visits will not really be practical. Only a small portion of the collection will be available on open shelving in the temporary basement location while other materials will need to be retrieved by staff for the patron. Service on Saturdays will be especially limited. Genealogy Staff will be operating out of a corner of the State Archives Search Room. Our staff will retrieve all State Library books (except those which are temporarily housed in our temporary quarters) and will also have to make photocopies for patrons. For details please see Renovation News on our website at: http://statelibrary.dcr.state.nc.us/ISS/rennews.htm ~ ~ ~ |
