Connie ChiuFebruary 2, 2015No library will ever be better than Berkeley's main stacks. Though students work hard here! First week of school and the library was packed on a Sunday night.
Simon LeeJanuary 11, 2012Need a 2-hour reserve book overnight? Check it out in less than two hours before the library closes and you can bring it back the next morning. Ask at Circ/Reserves desk on the 2nd floor.

The historical dances are lots of fun. Try to dress up.- Need both your bruin car and money in your bruin account to print. If don't have bruin card you can purchase a temp card on the second floor
