Drilling along the south wall of McHenry Library

On Thursday, April 27th, drilling began along the south wall of McHenry Library to install tie-backs that will eventually connect the addition to the existing structure. Because they have to core drill into the columns and foundation, there will be some noise and vibration in the library. This work will continue for the next few weeks. The drilling usually stops by 4:30pm for the day.

As we receive additional information we will share it with you. Questions? Please contact us.
