Program extending library hours continued for second year

A pilot program to extend hours at Sterling Memorial Library (SML) and Bass Library has been continued for another year, announced Kimberly M. Goff-Crews, secretary and vice president for student life, and Lynn Cooley, dean of the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences.

“The pilot — which increases the number of hours the library is open during the times classes are not in session — was the result of requests from the leaders of the Graduate Student Assembly and the Graduate and Professional Student Senate, who highlighted the increasing demand for library spaces to remain open later,” wrote Goff-Crews and Cooley in a message to students.

During the summer, SML will stay open later on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings, while late night hours on Thursdays in SML will continue as usual. During October and spring breaks, both Bass and SML will offer extended hours during the week. For more details, check the library hours website.

“Many thanks to the Office of the Provost and the staff at the University Library for their continued support of this initiative,” said Goff-Crews and Cooley.
