Hours of Operation

Policy

It is the policy of the Clayton State University Library to establish hours of operation that meet the study and research needs of the Clayton State University community. The library will determine standard hours of operation based on the University’s academic calendar. 

In unforeseen circumstances (e.g., staffing shortages, power or Internet outages, severe weather, or other emergencies), changes to hours and building access may become necessary. These changes may affect one or both levels of the library building. 

The library staff will communicate any deviations to this published policy on the library website, social media channels and, when possible, physical signage in the library.
