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

As of October 24, 2025:

Due to ongoing campus construction, access to the Joseph F. Smith Library is temporarily rerouted.

The main entrance is the North door (facing Naniloa Loop).

To reach this entrance, please follow the designated sidewalk starting across from the HGB. This ADA-compliant path passes the three portables and leads directly to the North door.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this period of campus improvement.

See maps for reference.
