Welcome to spring!

Library

The library will start offering in-person services on a limited basis this semester (unless, you know, there's some radical upheaval of some kind -- and what are the odds of that?). Services will initially be by appointment only in order to control access and to facilitate contact tracing if needed.

In-Person Hours

Tuesday - Thursday, 9 a.m. -  2 p.m.

Starting in week 2, the library (front desk) will take appointments for employee IDs onlyIf/when Harris County COVID numbers trend better, we'll move into our next phase with more in-person services, which we'll have announcements for at the appropriate times.

Learn more or make an appointment.

Our virtual services will continue as they have, sticking to our normal hours of operation. Email, chat, text, workshops, live instruction, etc etc.

Virtual Hours

Monday - Thursday, 8 a.m. - 9 p.m.

Friday, 8 a.m. - 5 p.m.

Saturday, 9 a.m. - 2 p.m.

Sunday, 1 - 6 p.m.

 

Academic Coaching

Coaching will continue to be offered virtually only via Upswing, with no in-person services planned for the semester. Overall hours with UP tutors will be the same as fall, though students may also have limited 24/7 access to Upswing's tutors (capped at 2 hours/week).
