Study Rooms
All six study rooms are available for use, including five on the 2nd floor and one on the ground floor. You may reserve study rooms on our Study Room calendar. Each room's capacity is limited to the number posted by the door, either 1 or 2 people. If this is your first time reserving a study room, you will need to create a free account. Also, in order to protect the health of fellow students, please be sure to clean work surfaces before and after each use.
Library common areas and equipment
Printers, photocopiers, computers, paper cutters, and vending machines are available for use. Cleaning supplies are readily available throughout the Library and we encourage patrons to engage in frequent cleaning when using common surfaces, and to wash and sanitize their hands often. Furniture has been relocated to facilitate greater distancing. There are signs to provide additional reminders on social distancing practices, mask requirements, and good hygiene practices.

Libraries across the world are suspending loans of books and scans of physical articles and book chapters because most staff are working remotely. Meredith interlibrary loan services will be operating on a limited basis, doing what we can to get resources for you. Let us know your information needs and we will get what we can. Note that the system will not be performing as rapidly or comprehensively during the pandemic.
Borrowing Materials
The Library bookshelves will be open for you to browse and retrieve your own materials. Items may also be requested for pick-up. Requests for materials for pick-up can be made through this request form
Returning Materials
Library books may be returned at the exterior book drop located in front of the library or using the book drop inside the library during open hours. All AV materials, equipment, DVDs, and ILL books should be returned inside the library if possible.
