News from the Washington State Law Library
. Greetings from Our New Home
The Law Library has settled in to the first of two temporary locations in Tumwater while the Temple of Justice undergoes infrastructure renovations. You can now find us at Town Center East, Building 3 - 243 Israel Road SE, Tumwater 98501. We are making plans to re - open to walk - in visitors once we move to the second of our temporary locations, but until we are ready to do so, we have the following services available: 1. Curbside Service: Curbside Service is available at our location in Tumwater on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 am - 1 pm. Contact the reference desk at 360 - 357 - 2136 or library.requests@courts.wa.gov to reserve books, or place holds on your library account via our online catalog: https://librarycatalog.courts.wa.gov/. Be sure to look for “ Town Center ” in the location field to determine if we have the book available at our new location. We cannot check out books or accept book returns at our location outside of curbside hours. If you are not able to return books during curbside hours, please contact the reference desk (360 - 357 - 2136) for additional return options. 2. Research Services and Response Time: Reference staff is still available to answer legal research questions over the phone and via email. Reference staff may need additional time to answer requests as access to the collection may be limited. Contact us at 360 - 357 - 2136 or Library.Requests@courts.wa.gov.
We will post all service updates to our website (https://www.courts.wa.gov/library/) and social media channels. Please check our website or contact us before visiting Town Center East.
