Visiting the library during the renovations?

Major renovations will take place in the library from July 2025 to February 2026. The Special Collections Reading Room is expected to remain open during this time. Please take into account both noise disturbance and limited capacity of the climate control. Depending on the expected temperature and humidity fluctuations, certain items may be unavailable or only available on a limited basis. If you plan to request parchment with painted decoration, photography, or pastel drawings, please contact us.
