The library is in its final stages of construction. On top of all of the renovations that the library has been through in the last several months, now the 4th and 5th levels are closed for Phase 3.
Online Remote Collections Access is going to be the newest update to the library. According to Scott Charmack, Associate Vice President of Physical Planning and Facilities Management, any book that you request in the computer will be at the check out desk within 60 seconds. The entire process is going to be done with robotics.
Sound like the Jetsons? Pretty much! According to the CSULB website, "This will all be done with an automated (robotic) book storage and retrieval system that can hold up to 850,000 volumes, allowing for growth for Library collections." This entire process will make the library easier and faster for both students and faculty.
