Bobst First Floor Renovation Project: construction related noise alerts; and space and service impacts.


Bobst’s first floor is undergoing exciting changes this fall. Read more about how we’re reimagining Bobst’s first floor.

While improvements are made to the building, the services and spaces may be impacted. We will update this page as the project progresses. Please note timelines are subject to change.


Construction Noise Alerts:

Drilling work will take place Saturdays and Sundays through September.

  • The noise is expected to be loud in the first floor atrium and on the balconies.
  • Nose may be audible in other areas of the library.

HVAC work 7am-3pm, Mon. Sept. 18 through Sun. Sept. 25

  • Maintenance work will be done on the HVAC vents at the base of the exterior windows and may involve some noise from work and machinery.
  • Work will start on 9 west and continue on floors 9, 8, 7, 6, 5 throughout the week.

We appreciate your patience and hope to minimize the disruption as much as possible given the extent of the construction work.

Users may get intermittent error messages when searching the catalog.


Error messages may look like: "the search failed due to a system error."

As a temporary workaround we recommend resubmitting the search which may clear the error.

We will be performing necessary maintenance Weds. Sept. 20 which from 7:00am - 8:00am (ET) during which time the following systems and services will be unavailable.

  • Library catalog (BobCat)
  • Book / item requests

We appreciate your patience while we work on the issue, and will post updates as they become available.
