Almost done! Books are going into the transitional space at Victoria University, as the Bora Laskin Law Library sets up its temporary home in the Birge-Carnegie building, across the street from the law school.

Only a portion of the Bora Laskin Law Library is being unpacked here. Some law books have moved to Robarts Library, and some have been put in storage.

On the main floor, staff are settling in their cool Gothic-like offices with high ceilings and antique windows. And a large room with an abundance of natural light is set aside as the reading room for the library.

The light renovations continue to make this space 'our own' for law students, faculty and staff.

In the mean time, unpacking and shelving is ongoing in anticipation of the library reopening on Monday, July 29th at 9 am.








 

 

The library's Alykhan Halani gave me a quick tour of the space at Birge-Carnegie.
