CCU University Libraries

Kimbel Library is Closed to the Public for Renovation! Kimbel Library was built in 1976, and has seen renovations and repairs over the years, but nothing quite like the overhaul we are about to see. We are excited to grow into our new spaces and level up your library experience!

THIS THURSDAY: Come by the Makerspace with your old jeans, denim jacket or anything else you want to refresh! We have fabric paint, heat transfer designs, and we'll show you how to fix basic tears! This event is open to all CCU students for free! 3:30-5 pm in the Makerspace!

Bryan Information Commons has now reopened. Construction is still taking place on the sidewalk leading into the Lib Jackson side, but the door closer to Thompson library is open.

Bryan Information Commons is currently closed due to an alarm issue. The building is not available to cut through. Thompson Library is open with normal operations. A notice will be sent when the building reopens.
