Message from the President

Dear Colleagues,

The Earl K. Long Library plays an incredibly important role on our campus - it is the academic heart of the university and provides our students with opportunities to study, borrow laptops, de-stress over a board game, or enjoy coffee. I regret that due to some staffing challenges we have not been able to keep the library open for the last several weeks outside of business hours.

I am very happy to share that beginning this Sunday, September 21, the library will be open according to the following schedule:

Monday - Thursday: 8am - 8pm
Friday: 8am - 5 pm
Saturday: CLOSED
Sunday: 2pm - 8pm

As our staffing levels improve, we hope to extend these hours further. Thank you for your patience and thank you to our supportive and creative library faculty and staff, along with our enthusiastic student workers.

With UNO Pride,

Kathy E. Johnson, Ph.D. 
President, University of New Orleans
