  • HSL Storage Items on the Move
    Over the summer, HSL is moving over 1.5 miles of materials from on-site to off-site storage. While items are in transit, they will be temporarily unavailable. Once the materials are in their new home, they can be requested and delivered to HSL using the Request/Place Hold button in the UW Libraries Catalog record. Thank you for your patience during this time.
