NEIU Libraries

NEIU Facilities staff are conducting water damage remediation on the lower level of the Ronald Williams Library, so materials on those shelves are temporarily not available. Please request books beginning with call numbers A, B, C, D, and E from I-Share libraries instead. Staff at Circulation or Reference can help you with these requests if you need assistance.

For any questions about the remediation project, please contact Dean of Libraries, Steven Harris, at s-harris9@neiu.edu.
