Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz announced on May 13 that the state’s “stay at home” order will expire on Monday, May 18.
Mitchell Hamline continues to operate with safety and public health concerns at the forefront, and we are actively reviewing processes and procedures to be put in place when we are able to gradually reopen the campus.
Until those processes and procedures are approved and implemented, the campus will remain closed to students, the library will remain closed to all patrons, and all employees should work from home unless they need to be on campus.
Those needing assistance with library materials or services are asked to contact circulation@mitchellhamline.edu or reference@mitchellhamline.edu.
The current policies around access and entry to the building remain in effect until further notice.
