Save the Alkek Library here at Texas State University. This current university administration has decided to turn the 5th and 6th floors of the student library into office spaces, not only taking away the quiet study floors from students but also making the majority of the library catalogue nearly inaccessible to the student body. If this administration gets what it wants, 350,000+ items will be completely removed from the library by November of this year. Some will be taken to the ARC, a building 15 minutes off campus, only accessible by appointment, but others will be completely recycled, thrown away to rot. We cannot let this happen. We cannot have a university without a library. Books are the fruit of knowledge. We cannot let them take away literature on STEM, the arts, psychologies, philosophies, cultures, and histories! Sign this petition to help us keep Alkek as a student hub and LIBRARY!
