Welcome back from Fall Break!

Hope you had some good times, relaxation, and at least a few good laughs...

In case you've forgotten, all our books are made from 100% Groot-free paper!

Library Hours are back to our regular hours:

Sunday Noon-Midnight

Tuesday 7:30am - Midnight
Wednesday 7:30am - Midnight
Thursday 7:30am - Midnight
Friday 7:30am - 6pm
Saturday 9am - 5pm

Everyone has been asking about the library in the event of a faculty strike. As mentioned by President Harpster, university facilities will remain open as usual. Research guides and research databases will be available through the library home page as usual. The difference for students and staff using the library is that Research Consultations and in-depth Research Assistance, which are provided by the library faculty, will not be available.
