>From West Virginia Archives and History News, Volume X, No. 3, May 2009:
Archives Library Reading Room Closing for Redecorating June 8-19

The Archives and History Library Reading Room is scheduled to close June
8 through June 19, 2009, for painting and for installation of new carpet
and window blinds. A bank of lockers and a restroom for Library patron
use will also be installed outside the Library entrance door. The
Archives and History Library staff will be available for telephone and
e-mail consultation during this time. Keep an eye on our Web site at
http://www.wvculture.org and your local media for announcements. Plans
are subject to change. Particularly if you are making a special trip or
traveling a distance to visit us around these dates, we urge you to call
us at (304) 562-0230 before coming to ensure that the Library will be
open to serve you that day. 

The addition of the lockers will allow some changes in Reading Room
usage policies for the greater security and preservation of West
Virginia Archives and History Library collections. As in most archival
libraries, patrons will be required to leave personal items in lockers
while researching in the Reading Room. Patrons will also be requested to
wash their hands in the adjacent new rest room before handling
collections. Once the new policies have been finalized, they will be
posted on our Web site, http://www.wvculture.org/history, and published
in Archives and History News.
