In response to “student concerns” about overnight access, the University library is changing requirements and limiting entry to its various locations at the start of the semester.
Beginning Jan. 18 — the first stay of the spring academic term — library users will need to present a valid i-Card for entry into the Undergraduate Library and Grainger from midnight to 6 a.m. Entry into the ACES Library will be restricted from midnight to 3 a.m.
Library users who aren’t faculty, staff or students will be asked to leave at midnight.
As an additional safety measure, the lower level of the Undergraduate Library will be closed during the hours of midnight to 6 a.m.
