You are studying from home, your apartment, or on campus. No matter the mode of instruction or where you are studying from, the library is still ready to help you!
Please follow Meredith Community Standards including wearing of face coverings and maintaining social distance while visiting the library.
Study Rooms
In addition to open tables and study carrels, the library has several study rooms available. All six study rooms are available for use, including five on the 2nd floor and one on the ground floor. Each room's capacity is limited to the number posted by the door, either 1 or 2 people. You may reserve a study room on our Study Room calendar. 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. We are unable to provide rooms for group study during the pandemic crisis.
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.
Our reference librarians will be available at the Ask Desk on the Main floor of the library to assist with your research needs. In addition, our full schedule of library research support continues to be available remotely.
Live chat via the library homepage is available:
Call the library at 919-760-8095 or 919-760-8532
Research guides are also available to help you find online resources to support your work. Each Research Guide includes the name of the librarian that you can contact for help with your research in that subject area.
Do you need media equipment? Visit the Media Service Desk in the Library or call 919-760-8444.
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. If you need to make special arrangements or have questions about returning a book or materials please use our chat service or our contact form.
