Library Spaces and Services<https://libraries.mit.edu/about/service-updates/>

Consistent with MIT guidance<https://orgchart.mit.edu/node/15/letters_to_community/response-omicron-plans-january> strongly encouraging remote work, the Libraries are limiting in-person interactions and on-campus work.

  *   Remote services (e.g., consultations<https://libraries.mit.edu/appointments>, email, reference services<https://libraries.mit.edu/ask>, online forms) remain available.
  *   Book delivery is expanding to help meet our community’s research and teaching needs. Delivery is available to on-campus offices or to a home address in the U.S., Canada, and U.S. territories.
  *   24/7 spaces<https://libraries.mit.edu/study/24x7/> in Barker, Dewey, and Hayden are available to those in Covid Pass; all other locations and stacks are closed (no in-person browsing).
  *   Distinctive Collections is offering virtual reference consultations<https://libraries.mit.edu/distinctive-collections/reading-room-policies/request-appointment/#zoom> with materials from our collections and digitization services.
  *   All online collections remain available.
