Emergency Closings
We follow campus public safety advisories and closings, in the event of adverse weather conditions or an emergency. We will post any changes to library hours or of closure on the library homepage.
Lockers
The library has fifty-two lockers in the Link available for off-campus students. If you would like to sign up for a locker, please email [email protected].
Microform Printers & Charges
We have a microform machine that allows anyone to email or download a file free of charge. Students, faculty, and staff may print pages from microfilm at no charge.
Printing & Photocopy Use
Macalester students, faculty, and staff can utilize the printers to print, photo copy, and scan documents free of charge. Printing services are not available for alumni or community members.
Poster Policy for the Link
The following guidelines refer to the space between the Library and Old Main Hall, called the “Link.” Due to the nature of the space, consisting mostly of windows, it requires a variation of the campus guidelines for posting on campus. These guidelines are:
- Members of the college community must include their name, organization name, or department, and a phone number and/or email address on any document, poster, or sign that they post in the Link for events. It is recommended to also include event time, date, location, and sponsor.
- Postings in the Link can be no larger than 4 feet by 4 feet.
- Posters will be removed from the Link on a weekly basis, usually on Mondays. All posters collected at this time will be recycled and/or disposed of. If parties would like their posters/banners back, they must be removed before Monday at 7 a.m..
- All publications are subject to applicable Federal and Minnesota state laws.
