Special Collections and Archives is now on summer hours and will be transitioning to a by-appointment-only model for reference services.
Special Collections and Archives summer hours will be Monday through Thursday from 8:00am – 5:00pm. The department will be closed on the following holidays – Memorial Day (5/25), Juneteenth (6/18) and July Fourth (7/2).
In order to better serve our patrons, Special Collections and Archives is transitioning from a walk-in reference model to an appointment-based service model. This is a strategic response to limited staffing and evolving institutional priorities, which will allow us to deploy staff more efficiently to support our patrons’ research and reference needs, and allow us to more effectively serve our patrons by having materials pulled and prepared for their appointment. This will be a permanent change that will be in effect starting on Monday, May 11, 2026. To make an appointment, email us at specialcollections@nau.libanswers.com or call us at 928.523.5551.
Thank you and we look forward to working with you!
