Crerar Library roof construction begins May 19

On May 19, workers will begin constructing scaffolding around Crerar Library in preparation for the roof replacement and façade repair. This work may be noisy at times; please be aware of this when planning your work in Crerar. Additionally, the sidewalk along the east side to the north corner of the building will be closed to pedestrian traffic, however both main entrances will remain open.

Full construction will begin on June 16th and is scheduled to continue through the summer until Sept. 26. Further updates on the project will be provided. Please contact co-Director of the Crerar Library Barbara Kern with any questions – bkern@uchicago.edu.
