via UC Berkeley Library 22 March 2021: UC Berkeley has withdrawn its proposal to close the South/Southeast Asia Library. Hurrah!
Earlier this month, the UC Berkeley Library issued a call for comment to a proposal to integrate the South/Southeast Asia Library’s collections and services into those of Doe Library and Main (Gardner) Stacks.
And you responded. You shared fond memories of studying in the South/Southeast Asia Library. You told us how the library and its dedicated staff came through for you. You emphasized the library’s value as a beacon of inclusion.
And we listened.
Today, the Library is announcing its decision to withdraw the proposal for the South/Southeast Asia Library.
