The Bentley Library Staff offered a session last Tuesday, July 25th, called "Leverage Your Bentley Library: Support for Your Work, Education & Recreation" as part of the Bentley Community Learning Conference (BCLC). We would like to thank the Human Resources staff for providing this opportunity to connect and the Bentley employees who attended and shared their enthusiasm for what the Bentley Library offers.

IEEE Xplore will be undergoing scheduled maintenance 9:00 am - 1:00 pm (Eastern Time) on Saturday, July 22. This resource may be unavailable at various points during this maintenance window.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Now that summer is here, it is time to highlight the Popular Reading Collection.

Located on the main floor near the café, the Popular Reading Collection contains both bestselling fiction and nonfiction including: mysteries, thrillers, romances, sci-fi, biographies and popular business books.

Welcome, Bentley book and film enthusiasts! It's that time of year when we reveal the Bentley Library Top 10—the most popular books, audiobooks, and movies borrowed from the library during the past academic year (excluding items placed on reserve for a class)*. We hope you enjoy this annual glimpse into the reading and viewing habits of our library users and that it inspires you to explore some new books and films. 

Please note that the library will have reduced hours on Sunday, July 2 and Monday, July 3, and will be closed on Tuesday, July 4 in observance of Independence Day. Regular summer hours will resume at 8:00 a.m. on Wednesday, July 5. View the online calendar for complete information about library, research help, and IT Help Desk hours.

Dear Bentley Community,

Due to an unexpected staffing issue, the Bentley Library will need to close at 4:30 p.m. today, Thursday June 8. The IT Help Desk will remain open until 8:00 p.m. and can be accessed using the main Help Desk entrance (facing Jennison).

Juneteenth is one of the oldest holidays celebrated in America. On June 19, 1865, Union General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas to announce that all slaves were free. This was nearly three years after Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation was signed to end slavery in the United States and its territories.
