Welcome Back to the Hilltop!

We at your BSC Library are thrilled to welcome both first-year and returning students back home to BSC. We look forward to helping you with all your library needs: materials of all kinds for checkout; space to study, meet, or watch films for class; help creating or finding answers to research questions; interlibrary loan for materials we don't have in the library at BSC; and computers to help you create or print your work (or any other reason), all provided by the friendliest staff around.

Poster announcing: Attention (you, too, returning students!) A food policy reminder: Food that drips, stinks, stains, sticks; including all caf food, subway, pizza delivery creates mess in your library *and is not allowed. Tables have been provided in the lobby, or take a break and enjoy your meal outside. Your library staff & fellow patrons thank you for your cooperation.
We do want to remind you of our policies in the library, especially with regard to food and drink. While the policy hasn't changed from previous years, we will be enforcing the policy completely going forward. We certainly don't want to be food police, but we also want to keep the library a clean, bug free, and pleasant environment for everyone, and stinky, drippy, sticky, staining food causes messes and inconvenience for everyone. So, as a reminder, covered drinks and packaged snacks are OK, but caf takeout, Subway, pizzas, or any other meals are not. Please comply with the policy and don't make us turn into meanies!

We also want to remind you of the library schedule for the fall semester. Regular hours begin August 28:

  • Monday-Wednesday, 8 a.m. to 1 a.m.
  • Thursday, 8 a.m. to midnight
  • Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
  • Saturday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
  • Sunday, 2 p.m. to 1 a.m.
Special hours will be posted on the library website.

Thanks for checking out the blog and we wish you the best year possible at BSC, whether it's your first, middle, or last!
