WSU Libraries in Pullman schedule soft opening on July 12

Starting July 12, WSU’s Holland and Terrell Libraries will be open from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Owen Science and Engineering Library will be open from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday. The Animal Health Library will be open from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Libraries’ administrators will work on solidifying plans for regular open hours during the fall semester and announce those plans in early to mid-August.

Due to its popularity, the libraries will continue to offer the locker hold contactless pickup system into the future. Staff will also continue mailing items for Pullman patrons upon request through the fall semester. Once campus reopens fully, campus office delivery service will also be reinstated.

WSU Spokane Academic Library will hold limited hours similar to Pullman libraries beginning July 12. Located in the Academic Center building, the library will approach reopening by coordinating with other services located there, including The Bookie and the Fresh Plate Café.

The WSU Vancouver Library is open from 2-7 p.m. Sunday through Thursday. Due to safety guidelines, the library is only open to WSU students/faculty/staff or students of other educational institutions who normally take classes on the WSU Vancouver campus. Other community members who have questions are encouraged to chat with a librarian through the library’s website. The library will begin more extensive fall hours on Aug. 18.

WSU Tri-Cities’ Max E. Benitz Memorial Library is undergoing a remodel and will remain closed until it is complete, sometime before the start of classes in August.
