Russell Library is undergoing flooring and carpet installation to enhance our facility and improve the study environment for the GCSU community.
Project Status Date: *Week of October 8, 2025
Flooring on the second floor of the library will begin. To accommodate the need for noise reduction for the Testing Center on the first floor, demoing will begin in the evening, and re-carpeting will follow the next day.

Computers on the 2nd floor of the library will be limited so that new flooring can be installed. Students needing computer access are encouraged to use Lab 122 on Thursday, October 9th, and Lab 119 on Friday, October 10th.
The 2nd and 3rd floors of the library will be closed beginning Saturday, October 11th - Tuesday, October 14th. Card swipe access to the first floor will be available during this time. Normal operations will resume on Wednesday, October 15, at 7:30 a.m.
Russell Library is receiving new flooring and carpet throughout the building. This project will:
Improve the overall appearance and functionality of study spaces
Enhance the durability and cleanliness of high-traffic areas
Create a more comfortable environment for studying and research
