Due to storage limitations, some Lilly Library materials will not be available for use during the renovation. We will be moving books and manuscripts out of the building throughout the fall 2019 semester in order to have the building ready for construction in January 2020.
This page will list collections that are closed for the term of the renovation and collections that will be unavailable for a shorter periods due to transport.
Lilly Library staff are using their knowledge of teaching and research needs to select materials that will remain accessible. If you are a faculty member or researcher who would like to alert the library of materials that you wish to access during the renovation, send an email to liblilly @ indiana.edu.
