Snell Library regularly requires deep cleaning and furniture resetting so that it can withstand heavy use. In order to reduce the impact of limiting study space; Snell Library will regularly close a floor during quieter times. These closures are in the overnight period (after our Service Hours end on the days listed below and before services begin the following day) and students are asked to relocate to another open floor for study during that period.
