The lower level of Centennial Library on the UNM Main Campus has been reopened, and science and engineering books are once again accessible to library patrons. The library’s lower level was damaged over the Christmas break by a burst water pipe. There was limited damage to books and periodicals, but the damage to the building was substantial.
Repairs to the building are still in progress.
Periodicals and other library services remained open during the renovation phase. Maps that were damaged in the flood will be returned to the Map and Geographic Information Center within the next few days.
While the lower level of Centennial was under repair, books had to be removed and stored. The books have been reshelved by library workers.
Offices on the lower level are still undergoing repair.
