BJL Redevelopment - New Year update



What’s going on?

·         LLI staff have commenced the book moves which will enable the work to start on creating the new service risers on the floors in the tower.  The risers will contain the infrastructure for the new heating and ventilation systems and also the enhanced wiring for power and network upgrade.

·         Some shelving will be dismantled  and removed from the areas in front of the lifts and on the east and west side of the tower to allow for the contractors, BAM, to start breaking through to build the risers.

·         Work is continuing on the temporary book decant area on the ground floor of the south wing
·         Some stock has already been relocated as shown below – Library staff will be pleased to assist users to find what they need :
