From the Tampa Library, following the water dammage of May 14:
This morning we re-opened half of the Media Resources area on the first floor of the USF Tampa Library. Half of the computers are accessible, we are making video/DVD players accessible, the scores are accessible, the Media Annex videos are accessible, and the desk will be open.
Remaining closed due to flooding damage are the main video collection, DVD collection, CD collection, multi-media rooms (LIB125D&E), and half of the computers. Staff will retrieve items from these collections for patrons as requested.
We may be able to open these areas soon, if several things fall into place. Carpet has been removed, and the concrete needs to dry and be cleaned, and the drying equipment needs to be removed. Once that happens, we will open the rest of Media Resources. There will be a brief closure again later in the summer when the carpet is replaced.
