Before you visit...

Here are some helpful things to know before visiting Sims Library:

Library hours change between semesters. The current library hours are found online.

The parking spaces in front of the Library are faculty/staff parking. This is enforced on weekdays during the regular semester until 4:30 PM. Graduate students may park in front of the Library after 4:30 PM and on weekends. 

You will be accessing library resources remotely. To log into library databases and e-books, use your W number as your Username and your 6-digit birthdate as your PIN. (Note that this is different than the other three University systems that are linked: webmail, Blackboard and LeoNet).

Each student pays a Student Technology Fee to the University. This fee allows students to print up to 50 pages per credit hour from campus networked computers using the Print Release System.
