Irwin Library will open at approximately 2 pm on Sunday November 10th due to a planned power outage on campus. Every effort will be made to open the building at 2, but it will be dependent on the restoration of power. If there are delays, please consult Dawg Alert messages and campus-wide emails for more information. You can also follow @ButlerUpolice on Twitter. Additionally, the Science Library, located in the Holcomb building, should be open normal hours beginning at Noon.
The steps on the west side of Irwin Library are scheduled to be removed and replaced. During the project, the main entrance will be closed. An alternative entrance will be located on the North end of the building (facing Clowes Hall) and signs will be posted directing patrons to the temporary entrance.
In addition, the landings above and below the steps will be removed and replaced. Finally, some of the blue/gray stamped concrete will be removed and replaced between the Irwin steps and Star Fountain.
Work will begin the week of July 15. The contractor will complete the new installation by Aug. 16.
