After a lot of blood, sweat, and tears being shed, debates on the proper categories, and at least one back being thrown out trying to lift many, many, many art history survey books (those suckers are heavy), our library is finally open!
If you’re an HAA student you definitely want to check out the library! The books range from survey books, to reference books, to books on a particular artist or movement. We even have journals and catalogs. Some of the books include ones that are used by our professors for their classes or have been donated by our professors.
While you can’t check out books, if you bring a flash drive the front desk staff can help you scan a chapter or image from a book and you’re welcome to sit and read during open hours.
We do have a few rules:
- Normally Open 9:30 – 4:30, Monday – Friday unless the university is closed.
- Please DO NOT remove any items
- Please no food. Drinks are okay as long as they are in a bottle or cup with a secured lid
- Please put items back where you found them
- Please keep sound to a minimum
If you aren’t an HAA student you are still more than welcome to check out the library as well. You may even want to take a gander at some of our books, you might find a hitherto unknown love for art history!
Want to know what we have in our library ahead of time? You can check that out here. The library is in our suite, Arts and Letters Hall, suite 411.
