Construction of a door to the Automated Retrieval Center has begun at the back of the Knowledge Commons on the 2md (main) floor.
To seek a quieter environment, library classrooms 235A and 235C are open for study. These are located off Infusion, the café area. Areas in the front of the building (Reflecting Pond side), on 3rd and 4th floor may be out of the noisy area.
Earplugs are available at the Circulation Desk if the noise is a challenge.
We apologize for this inconvenience.

Overdue fees and bills for the UCF Libraries can now be paid using credit or debit at the John C. Hitt Library.

As a reminder, you can avoid overdue fees by renewing your library items online through our website or over the phone by calling 407-823-2580 where we’re happy to answer any questions you may have!
