FIRST FLOOR IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS!

The first floor renovation, including the new reading room, is complete and we hope you are as delighted with it as we are! The reading room is a large, well-lit, VERY QUIET study space. Open reserve is now on the first floor as well, along with all staff offices.

The BASEMENT level is open and accessible from the first floor, down the hallway and taking either the stairwell or the elevator. The basement level lab is open. And if your files are on a flash drive, we also have a plug & print station set up next to the photocopier on the first floor.

The PLAZA level is now closed for renovation and is scheduled to re-open at the start of the Spring semester. It will host additional group study rooms, additional study carrels, and a new computer lab.

Thank you all for your patience during this construction time, but we think you'll agree that the results are well worth it!

Construction Update and Scheduled Closures

Renovation of the first floor level continues on schedule and we will be moving upstairs the weekend of October 18-19. Toward that end, the law library will CLOSE on Friday, October 17 at 3pm and will remain closed all weekend. Monday morning, October 20, we will open at 7:30am with the new entrance on the first floor. We are all very excited about the new space, and you will love the new reading room! Reference, Open Reserve, California practice materials and staff offices will be re-located to the first floor.

The PLAZA LEVEL will then be CLOSED from October 17 at 3pm until the beginning of the spring semester. The plaza level will be renovated with new carpeting, shelving, additional study carrels space, two additional group study rooms, and a renovated computer lab. We will move the most-used California materials to the first floor during this time, but please be aware that California case reporters and legislative materials will be in storage for approximately 8 weeks. We will help you find necessary documents online or from another source if needed.

The BASEMENT LEVEL remains open during this time, and will be accessible via the stairwell or elevator.

Thank you for your patience during this time of construction. The noise will soon be over and forgotten as you study in our fresh, new areas.

US State and City Administrative Codes

Code City links to US state and city administrative codes. Most are safety, building and energy codes. A great resource if you need the New Mexico Building Code, for example.
