At the Valley Library, we engage in regular assessment of hours and spaces. To make decisions about open hours, we consider:
Campus and state guidelines for health and safety;
Staffing levels needed to deliver services and ensure that spaces are kept usable and comfortable;
How many people are using library spaces and services, and when;
What other study spaces and services are available on campus, and when they are open.
