Entrances and Services Access
Due to major construction, there will be some changes to how library patrons access the Joseph F. Smith Library and its services. Please refer to signage, library social media, the bulletin, and this page for regular updates.
New Updates
Due to ongoing construction around campus, access paths to the Joseph F. Smith Library is rerouted. The building can be accessed via a sidewalk across from the HGB, passing by the three portables. Patrons then walk around the building to the main entrance. The door on the North side of the library facing Naniloa Loop is the main entrance to the library. Patience and understanding during this period of campus improvement are appreciated.
See maps for reference.
New Temporary Study Room
We now have a temporary study room located on the left side of the library. To access it:
- Go through the lobby and head left.
- At the end of the hallway, turn right.
- You will find the open study space in Room JFS152.
Feel free to use this space for studying and collaborative work!
Restrooms are now functional
The restrooms in front of the vending machine and near the Information Desk are now open for use. Thank you for your patience!
Feminine Products
Women's Services and Resources has thoughtfully assembled a collection of free feminine products available now in the Women's Restroom by the Circulation Desk. We encourage anyone in need to make use of these products and appreciate the efforts of those who made this possible.
Dust Allergy
Please wear a mask if you have a dust allergy while the library is under construction. Apologies for the inconvenience.
