The Hahnemann and Queen Lane Libraries will close at 5:00 pm on Wednesday, November 23rd and will remain closed Thursday and Friday for the Thanksgiving holidays. On Saturday and Sunday (11/26 and //27) Hahnemann Library will be open Noon – 6 pm; Queen Lane Library will be open Noon – 5 pm.  24-hour study areas at both libraries will remain open through the holiday and the weekend.

After Labor Day, our summer schedule of hours (closing at 9:00 pm Monday – Thursday) will continue, most likely until the start of the Fall term. At that point, we hope to be able to hire a full roster of student employees so that we can restore our longer weekend and evening hours. Thank you for your continued patience during a staffing shortages this summer!
