The library will be closing public access to the stacks for the remainder of the summer while we prepare for the campus move. Books are still available for loan. The closure of the stacks begins on June 22, 2026, and will last through August. To access books during this period, place a hold on the book through the library website—after selecting the title you are interested in, click the “Request this item” button underneath the book’s call number to place a hold. You must be logged into your library account. Book holds will be available the following business day after placing the hold. If you have questions, please feel free to stop by the library or send us an email.
