Aug. 8 Power failure in ED II. Library and Student Success Center are closed

A power failure in the Education II building has forced the Library and the Student Success Center to close for the day until power can be restored.  UPDATE: The Library and SSC will be closed today and Friday.

Databases and electronic resources are available through the UAMS Library website.

We will update this page and the phone message at the Circulation Desk (501-686-5980) as we learn more about repairs, when the power may be restored, and when we can expect to reopen the Library and the SSC.
Thank you for your patience.
