Library extends hours during finals The Chester Fritz Library will extend building hours during Finals Week. New this year will be the 2 a.m. closing Sunday night through Thursday, May 4–8. Increasing hours of operations will give students more opportunity to use library resources and the quiet study spaces as they prepare for tests and complete papers and projects. The schedule will be: * Friday, Read/Review Day, May 2, 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. * Saturday, May 3, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. * Sunday, May 4, 1 p.m. to 2 a.m. * Monday, May 5, through Thursday, May 8, 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. * Friday, May 9, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The extension is in response to students’ requests for additional library hours during finals week. Building activity will be monitored during the extended hours to ascertain facility use. The circulation and periodical desks will be staffed during all hours of operations, but other departments such as reference services and Special Collections will maintain regular hours. Contact the Chester Fritz Library administration at 777-2189 with any questions regarding the extension of building hours. -- Wilbur Stolt, Director of Libraries.
