Where can you find giant maps, study space, and books for days?
The first floor, of course! No, not the floor with the coffee shop. The one beneath that.
Take the stairs or the elevator and visit the first floor of the John C. Hitt Library. Follow Carrie Moran in this quick tour of the place that the government documents department calls home.
Hours at the John C. Hitt Library on Gameday, Saturday, November 19 are 9.00 a.m. to 7.00 p.m. Kickoff at Bright House Stadium is at 8.00 p.m., so hard-working, Library-using, hard-studying, relentlessly researching Knights have plenty of time to meet tailgating friends and see the start of the game. The UCF Knights face the Tulsa Golden Hurricane, under the lights. Go Knights! Charge On!
Join us for the third in a series of Open Heart Open Mics on Thursday, November 17th at 6PM in John C. Hitt Library room 223. The UCF Libraries is partnering with the Women’s & Gender Studies Program to present an ongoing open mic event series.
Each month will feature a UCF faculty member and UCF student speaking on the monthly theme. This month’s theme is Indigenous Peoples. You are welcome to bring a story, poem, song, or any other vocal presentation to share – on any topic.
There will be refreshments provided.
For more information, check our event page.
