Most libraries and sections have open stacks with selected materials kept in closed areas, not accessible for browsing.
All visitors are free to use materials in the library.
Auxiliary Stacks, Manuscripts and University Archives, Special Collections, Government Publications and the Media Center are closed stacks and unavailable for public browsing. Most reserve materials are also in closed stacks. Access to these materials is acquired through the appropriate public service desk. The Suzzallo central circulation desk accepts Auxiliary Stacks and archival theses requests and retrieves these materials twice daily on weekdays and once a day on weekends and holidays. Some materials are restricted to Library Use Only.
