January 2026 - New Special Collections Hours
Starting January 2026, the William Munroe Special Collections will be open Tuesday to Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM.
The new hours will provide Special Collections staff dedicated time to focus on essential behind-the-scenes work that makes research possible: processing newly acquired materials, improving digital collections, enhancing descriptions, and addressing backlogs that limit access. These efforts ensure that more of our holdings are discoverable, usable, and available to the public—both now and in the future. We appreciate your understanding and support as we make this investment in the long-term accessibility and care of the collections you value.
If you need to reach Special Collections outside of open hours, you can email speccoll@minlib.net.
