Extended Hours Start

Don't worry, final exams don't start for a few more weeks. Exactly 2 weeks in fact: Thursday, April 5.

But the Library always likes to give students plenty of time to get ready. Which is why, beginning this Saturday, we will be open until 1:00 in the morning every night till the last exam on the 24th. And we'll open a little earlier on Saturdays and Sundays too.

The Circulation Desk will close at the usual 11 o'clock but you'll still be able to study, use our computers or any of the other things you like to do in the Library for a few hours after that.

To save you a few mouse clicks, here are the hours for the next while:

March 19-25

Monday – Friday 8:00am – 11:00pm

Saturday 10:00am - 1:00am

Sunday noon – 1:00am

March 26-April 22

Monday – Saturday 8:00am – 1:00am

Sunday 10;00am – 1:00am

April 23-24

Monday 8:00am – 1:00am

Tuesday 8:00am-7:00pm

April 25-May 7

Monday – Friday 9:00am – 5:00pm

Saturday & Sunday CLOSED

And, of course, best of luck with those exams. You can handle it.
