Students, faculty, staff, visiting researchers and the general public are all welcome in our Reading Room.

There are a few special guidelines for this space.

• All Special Collections material must be used in the reading room.
• You may bring pencils, notebooks, paper, a laptop computer or tablet, and a cell phone or camera for self-service photography into the reading room.
• You may not bring pens, food, beverages, bags, coats, umbrellas, or skateboards into the reading room. Lockers are available at no charge for secure storage of personal items.
• Silence cell phones and take calls outside the reading room.

If you enter by the accessible entrance in the back of Billings Library, Special Collections is just ahead on the right. If you enter through the main front entrance, the easiest way to reach Special Collections is to take the elevator down to the second level. Turn left when you exit the elevator and enter Special Collections just ahead on your left.
