"The law library, which occupies three floors of the law school's six-story building, was renovated from May through September 2004. The project provided, among other things, well-lit carrels for individual study; tables for group projects; a cyber bar with comfortable, casual seating; and the Sidebar Cafe, which serves coffee and light meals. In the course of the renovation, library staff members created a time capsule that includes a staff phone list, a librarian's pay stub, and a sign that reads "Please Reshelve These Books."
