[Genealib] Texas State Library and Archives Commission's public service areas closed December 22-26 and January 1

[Diana Houston]

The Texas State Library and Archives Commission (TSLAC) will close the Lorenzo de Zavala State Archives and Library Building from December 22 - 26, to allow contractors who are in the process of renovating the 47-year old building, to switch over to a new heating, ventilating and air conditioning system. We will also be closed on January 1, 2009.

While most of the library materials are in storage throughout the renovation, I want to take this opportunity to remind everyone that official state government records remain accessible, although researchers should expect longer turnarounds as items may be off-site. Please call 512-463-5455 in advance of any visit to the get the latest news about the renovation and how it might impact your research. 

We are committed to providing the same high level of reference service as before, but it may take a bit longer. We have sincerely appreciated your patience--and many kind words--during this challenging period.
