Winter Intersession Services from the Library

The University Library is adjusting its hours for the winter intersession. These changes start on Saturday, December 21, unless that day is needed for make-up exams (due to inclement weather). We will otherwise be closed on weekends until the spring semester starts on January 21, 2025.

From Sunday, December 22, 2024 - Sunday, January 5, 2025 both buildings will be closed. Remote services will be available on December 23, 30, and 31 as well as January 2 and 3.

Both libraries reopen on January 6. Our schedule from January 6-20 is 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. All regular services will be available.

As always, you can still access digital content from our collections and subscriptions when the library isn’t open. If you need articles, eBooks, streaming videos, or more, all you need to do is login with your UMass Lowell credentials.
