Spaces
The plan is to provide robust library services while implementing reduced building capacity and other temporary measures to promote community health and well-being - relating to the social pandemic environment and the college’s Community Care Covenant.
The following operational changes have taken place:
- This webpage will reflect the very latest changes.
- New traffic patterns have been established, including single-direction front doors, stairwells, book shelving aisles, and service desk areas.
- Seating (and computer stations) have a minimum of six-foot spacing, and building-wide has been reduced by at least 60%.
- ALL floors are now designated “Quiet” to ensure individual silent study.
- Group study rooms are NOT available this semester.
- Reference & research consultations will be done online (physical Reference Desk closed).
- Sanitation stations (hand sanitizer and wipes) are provided on each floor.
- Restrooms are single-user only (Lower Level), with Library staff using other facilities.
- Facial masks & physical distancing are mandatory for building use.
Fall semester hours of operation:
- Monday-Thursday: 7:30 a.m. - 12:00 a.m. (midnight)
- Friday: 7:30 a.m. - 11:00 p.m.
- Saturday: 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 p.m.
