The Watson Library building is located directly behind College Hall, off College Street.
For assisted access to Watson Library use the ground floor entrance to the library on the side facing Boyd Cultural Arts Center.
For assisted access from the College Hall parking lot: we have a ground floor entrance off the sidewalk between the Library and College Hall. There is a doorbell on the doorframe. Ring, then give us time to get to and open the door. Or call us when you are on your way to the library, and we can meet you at the door.

Can I go upstairs? – YES! Our main collection is upstairs, and there are lots of places to sit, read, or study.
Can I print? – YES! The library printer can print both black & white and color, and also functions as a copier.
What are “course reserves”? – items that are available for 2 hour, in-library access. Ask for course reserves at the circulation desk.
