Looking for a new spot while the library is under construction? Check out our new Study Space Guide at sl.richmond.edu/Af to find alternative study spots, printers, and computer labs across campus!

Construction on B1 (now the Ground Floor) is going strong! New stairs, fixtures, and landscaping have been installed, but there’s still more to be done. The space remains an active construction zone, so stay tuned (and stay clear). We can't wait to welcome you back in Fall '25!

We're less than 2 weeks away from the re-opening of the Ground and Basement floors! We are so excited to welcome you back into our space starting Aug 18th, M-F from 8am-5pm. Extended hours will begin with the start of the Fall Semester on August 24.

Welcome back, Spiders! 🕷️
