Yes! In according with campus policies and procedures, you must wear a mask in the library building. You must keep your mask on while you use library equipment, browse the collection, or study. Masks will be provided for library visitors who did not bring a mask.
JHML strives to ensure that library materials and spaces are safe for patron use by abiding by campus rules and procedures. Sanitizing stations are available throughout the library to assist with cleaning surfaces if desired.
Not necessarily. Many library resources remain accessible online through e-books, e-journals, and databases. To reduce the amount of time spent in our building, patrons can request physical items online from Trinity (local borrowing) or other academic libraries (I-Share/ILL) and pick up the items at the Circulation Desk.
Yes! If you do use a book while browsing, please place it on one of the “browsing shelves” and a library staff member will re-shelve it for you. Also, if someone is in the same area as you, please wait until they vacate before entering the area.
Yes! A limited number of computers will be available. Printing will remain accessible when the library is open.
The IT Help Desk is available both in-person and online to help with your computing needs.
The Office of Learning Services (OLS) is open.
The Writing Center will be available to help with writing needs; check the Writing Center website for details.

Penalties are in place for items you fail to return to the library at all OR if you fail to return reserve items on time.
On-campus and local students can and should return those materials during normal library hours by their due date.
The library will mail up to five items to non-local students (continental U.S. only). Please email library@trnty.edu to make a request.
We cannot guarantee that all requests will be filled. I-Share requests will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. You may be encouraged to use your local library, or we may electronically scan portions of materials instead of mailing items.
