Planning & preparing for reopening
Updated July 27, 2021
We're reopening in August
Whether you’re new to the campus or coming back, we are ready for you.
For the first time in a long time, you’ll be able to access our expert staff, new and renovated spaces, technology, and print collections in person. Some workshops and programs will be available in person, but we’ll keep providing a wide range of online services, resources, and programming. Contact the librarian in your college/department if you have questions.
We strongly encourage wearing face masks inside all library buildings to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, but they're not required.
