Laurie -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Diana Houston Sent: Friday, July 27, 2007 12:02 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Genealib] Renovations at the Texas State Library and ArchivesCommission The Lorenzo de Zavala State Archives and Library Building, home of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission, is getting a facelift! This is good news for both our customers and our staff, as the 46-year old building has been in great need of renovation. We expect construction work on the two-year renovation to begin in September 2007, but some important changes are afoot now that may impact your research with us. Please read on! We are pleased that we'll be able to stay open throughout most of the renovation; however, services will be limited, and much of our collection will be moved offsite. As with any construction project, unexpected events may cause us to close for certain brief periods. We urge researchers to call ahead when planning a trip to our facility. The number is 512-463-5455. With advance notice, the official state records of Texas stored offsite can be retrieved for you. Unfortunately a portion of our collection will be inaccessible during the renovation. Bookmark www.tsl.state.tx.us and follow the Renovation News link, which includes a timeline and will be kept current with news about our services throughout the two year project. Thanks for your patience and understanding as we bring our facilities into the 21st Century.
