The library has a bookdrop that remains open 24/7. NEW Info.
It's on the west side of the building, just off Hewitt Ave. Look for the ramp and the library's sign, and there's a big metal box set in the wall of the library in that area. However it is not checked every day during semester breaks as usual. If the book-drop is full, please try returning your items another day. Do NOT pile books outside.
Please don't put computers or WiFi devices in the bookdrop--instead return electronic devices to PiperExpress, located in Sorin Hall.
There are public computers near the center stairs on 2nd and 3rd floor that do not require logins.
Computers are also available on the 1st floor and also the lower level of the Library and require a network login (see CSD for guest accounts).
Network jacks are located throughout the building on all floors. Wireless access is available on all floors of the Library.
