Welcome back everyone! We missed you! As you gear up for the semester, we’ll be around to help you up when you stumble, give you that extra edge, and support you in all of your law school endeavors. We’ve got your back with CALI lessons, study aids, research guides, access to Westlaw, Lexis, Bloomberg Law, and most importantly, people! We can help you find what you need and teach you how to find it on your own.
Hours
The library will be open and staffed Monday through Friday, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. We will be closed on Sept. 2 for Labor Day. Need to use the library outside of those hours? Law students, staff, and faculty have 24×7 access to the library with your Bearcat card and you always have access to our thousands of online resources.
