WELCOME POINTERS!

By

The Library Staff welcomes you to the new academic year! We even put together a Welcome Students video just for you! We look forward to meeting you or seeing you again if you are returning to campus! We are here to help you be successful in your academic pursuits. 

Some of you who are returning to the UWSP main campus may be wondering, “hey, why are the Albertson Hall doors locked?” That’s because the building will be demoed sometime this year and a new building will be erected in its place. Please read this for information about our library relocation. A lot (a lot) of planning has gone into a new building designed with students foremost in mind, and you can read more about the construction project here.

Don’t be scared though because we have moved our critical library service points to other campus buildings! Here is how to find us:


We also have some exciting events for Welcome Week! Please visit us and get some cool swag, helpful information, treats, meet your friendly library staff, and more!!

Student Engagement Fair

MON – 9/5
