Summer Location
This summer, while the Grace Van Dyke Library experiences some upgrades, the lobby and second floor are unavailable. The library will be temporary located in CSS 117 through the end of summer. This space is located underneath the Tutoring Center and right next to the Student Success Lab.
In CSS 117, students will be able to:
- Get 1:1 research help from library faculty (and we are on chat as well!)
- Study in air conditioning
- Use library laptops
- Check out reserve textbooks for summer courses
We are unable to provide the following services for the rest of the summer:
- Study rooms
- Access to physical books, but please remember that we do have access to 200,00+ ebooks (and millions of articles) online 24/7
The Computer Commons of the bottom floor of the library is still open and students may use computers and printers there. You must enter through the doors found below the Community Technology Center sign on the side of the library facing P1.
