Update on the Consolidation of the Dentistry Library
Earlier this year, the Dean of the School of Dentistry announced, after meeting with Paul Courant, the Dean of Libraries, and Jane Blumenthal, the Director of the Health Sciences Libraries, that the current physical dentistry library space in the Dental Building "would no longer be needed for archiving the print collection".
In terms of dates, the Dentistry Library is scheduled to close to the public on June 27. The library's print collection will be subsequently moved to the Taubman Medical Library in July. Some of the collection's duplicates will be withdrawn, but the collection as a whole will remain intact and accessible at Taubman.
During this time (and beyond), the Health Sciences Libraries will continue to provide collection, research, and educational support to Dental faculty, staff, and students. The Dentistry liaison librarian will continue work closely with the Dental community to ensure that the Health Sciences Libraries continue to meet the school's clinical, research, and curricular needs.
If you have any questions and/or comments regarding the consolidation, please contact Mark MacEachern at markmac@umich.edu.
