Renovation of the Roy O. West Library

The installation of the new HVAC systems in Roy O. are nearly complete.  We will be returning to Roy O. at the end of the week, and be open for business on Monday, August 11th.  Please bear with us during the end of this week and early next week as we get re-established.  We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

All library services will still be available via the Prevo Science Library in the Julian Center. We will also have ready access to the Roy O. collections, and can retrieve materials requested within 24 hours.

Requests can be made for Roy O. materials by e-mailing library@depauw.edu.  Resources are paged twice a day, Monday - Friday, except for Friday, June 27th, due to building restrictions.

If you have any particular research needs over the summer, please contact us so that we can make arrangements to assist you.

General Info

During the 2006-2007 academic year, the Library Advisory Committee worked to solicit, collect and share information about the library with members of the campus community. Student and faculty groups were consulted and the committee made the following recommendations which were used to develop the current plans.

CSO Architects are working with the University on this project.
