Students needing to study for exams or work on that final paper are welcome to come and take advantage of these special extended hours for this week.

Will it be safe in the Library? Department of Public Safety officers will be on hand to ensure the library will be a safe environment for those wishing to stay into the wee hours of the morning — or overnight!

Recharge devices? There are many electrical outlets (including under each of the carrels along the edge of the room) for powering devices.

Need a laptop? Thompson Library even has laptops available to checkout for use within the library. (Remember; student id cards — the UMID — also acts as your library card using the barcode on the back of your card.)
