Alcove Transformation

When most of us returned to the library this academic year we saw a change in the alcove next to the reference room. It went from being an index room with tables along the walls that were never used to two tables in the middle with a mess all around. Now we have two large round tables, five computer stations, four reading chairs with laptop tables and comfortable desk chairs. A few librarians and I scrounged up some photos of this amazing change.  Below you can see this transformation.

What is use to be:

Here are several that I took in its intermediate stage:

What it looks like today after the hard work of three women; a librarian, a electrician and a painter:

Today the alcove is a popular spot because of the lighting, privacy and because it is comfortable.
