Submissions due by Wednesdays @ 1 p.m. Law Library Moves Lesser-Used Materials to New Facility Saint Louis University’s three libraries will open a nearby facility to house lesser-used but research-significant print materials. The building will be called the Locust Street Library Facility. Materials relocated there will appear in the catalog with the location designation of “Locust Street Facility.” The new space will allow for more study space with additional tables, electrical connections and soft seating and will provide growth space for the print collection. The Law Library move will take place the week of April 6-10. Efforts are being made to mitigate disruption and movers will not be in all parts of the Library at all times. The Morrissey side of the second floor and the Connector Building will be the most heavily traveled areas.
