MSE Renovation Marks a Year of Milestones - The Sheridan Libraries & University Museums Blog A year into the construction phase of the Milton S. Eisenhower renovation project, here are four major milestones to celebrate.

It’s Thinking About You Week, and we’ve been thinking about the MSE Library (@jhulibraries.bsky.social)! It’s been under construction for over a year now, and we can’t help but wonder how it’s going.

A construction update was published this summer:
