Sam Houston Regional Library closed until further notice

The staff at the Sam Houston Regional Library and Research Center are getting a longer holiday break than planned. The center has been closed since at least the end of last week because its air-conditioning system is on the fritz, and the center will remain closed until further notice.

The Vindicator has not spoken to anyone at the SHRL, but the loss of climate control can pose a danger to archives. Besides the discomfort to staff and visitors, it is likely very important that the center close to keep out as much moisture as possible.
