      Did you know that Tisch Library is adding 13, 000 linear feet of compact shelving to Level G. This plan allows space for all bound journals that are not already available online to be shelved together on one level. Also, this frees space on Level 1 for growth of the book collection. Tisch Library  adds approximately 20,000 print books a year to its collection requested by faculty to support curriculum and research.
