Shaver Engineering Library will be merging with the Science Library over the summer to become the Science and Engineering Library in the Margaret I. King Building. We will be open to the public in Anderson Tower (FPAT) until 4:30 p.m. Friday, May 13th. After this date we will be moving collections, furniture, staff, etc. to our new location to be ready for fall semester. Contact susan.smith@uky.edu for further information or assistance during this time.
Shaver Engineering Library is permanently closed. Visit us at the Science Library this fall.
