Westwood : Reference Librarians Relocated

Two groups of reference librarians formerly housed at the fire-damaged Los Angeles Central Library have found new quarters at the UCLA Library, university librarian Russell Shank announced.

Nine staff members of the Southern California Answering Network are working in offices in the university’s research library and six staff members of the Metropolitan Cooperative Library System are being housed at the Powell library.

The two groups were among the librarians displaced by the April 29 fire at the Central Library. “By housing these reference groups,” Shank said, “we are providing access to our collections to librarians all over the county.”
