SALT LAKE CITY – The J. Willard Marriott Library at the University of Utah was closed Saturday and will be closed again Sunday after bed bugs were found, and the closure came shortly after a single floor had been closed due to the pests.
On Saturday, a notice was posted on the library that indicated the building was closed for the weekend and that level one only would be open Monday. According to the notice, “…pest control professionals have identified bed bugs on levels 1, 2, and 3 of the Marriott Library.”
The notice indicated the pests were confined to soft seating areas. Level 1 will be treated so it can be opened Monday for scheduled classes. The library is expected to be fully open Tuesday.
