The mission of the rare book collection is to provide a secure and controlled environment for materials of historic value, fragile condition, or those requiring special treatment. The RBR is closed all University Holidays. Special requests may also require an appointment.
Registration is verified with each use.
Complete or verify registration cards at User Services Desk. You must have a separate request card for each item you wish to use. Ask User Services staff or the Rare Book Librarian for help in identifying materials. Staff may limit number of items in use at one time. A secured locker is provided for all other items, such as coats, purses, backpacks, briefcases, pens, markers, food or drink.
