Cole Construction began work on Sunday, 10/23.  Six hours in, they had nearly a third of the library prepped.  Bookshelves and office furniture were moved and the old glue was being scrapped off the sub-floor.  Best of all, there was no dust or debris in the air to worry about; a distinct advantage of the scraping over bead-blasting method.

Scraping! This wheeled machine had a flat blade at the front.
The yellow rolls on the floor are old adhesive.
