The Kennedy Library building has closed for its two-year transformation. There is no access to the Kennedy building, but services are still available.
You can return materials in book drops located in the H10 parking lot across the street from the Kennedy building, on Dexter Plaza (near Subway), or the Crandall Gym Library Service point during open hours. Print Course Reserves should be returned to Crandall.
The Crandall Gym service point (bldg. 60) is now open Monday thru Friday 9am-7pm, and closed on Saturdays and Sundays. To see what is available in Crandall, view the "Library Service Locations" tab.
Request options in OneSearch for books and other physical items via Interlibrary Loan and items held in on-campus storage now route delivery to the Library Pickup Lockers on Dexter Plaza (near Subway). See the Library Pickup Lockers page on this guide for details and instructions for the pickup lockers.
