Welcome back from winter break! We are looking forward to seeing you in the library and ask for your help in keeping it a healthy and welcoming space for all members of our community.  

Welcome to wintersession! This will be an intense week of coursework, but don't worry, reference librarians are here to help you with your assignments, papers, and projects. Although the building will be open, all research help is being provided online only from January 18-21.

We're celebrating the top books and audiobooks of 2021 with our 13th annual Best Books display! This year's display features more than 250 titles that appeared on 19 year-end best books lists.*

The library's hours for the period of January 10 - January 23, 2022, which includes the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday and wintersession classes, are:

Monday, January 10 - Thursday, January 13
8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.

Friday, January 14
8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.

The Bentley Library has been pleased to be able to offer the Bentley community the ability to search across multiple databases for articles using our Article Search feature on our homepage. However, we were recently notified that this search tool is being phased out by the vendor that supplies it. We have selected a new vendor and are excited to be able to offer a more robust search experience later in 2022.

The Bentley Library will be closed during the University's winter break - Friday, December 24 through Sunday, January 9. All staffed services will be unavailable during the break. The library will reopen at 8:00 a.m. on Monday, January 10, 2022. 

Please note the following changes to the library's hours for the days after finals end and before winter break begins:

Friday, December 17
