Silent Study Space: During finals, Pitts operates as a silent library. Please be respectful of those working around you when holding brief, quiet conversations.

Hospitality: Pitts is busier during finals than most other times of the year, so it is particularly important that you remember to share tables, outlets, and other resources to support each others’ success.

Snacks Only: Small snacks and covered drinks are welcome, but please refrain from bringing full meals into the library.

Additional Study Space: Classrooms on the 3rd floor of the library (Rooms 360, 368, and 369) are open and set up as study spaces during the finals season. Feel free to use those spaces!

Visitor Policy: Visitors are welcome at Pitts until 5pm. After 5pm, an EmoryCard is required for entry to the library.

Let Us Know How We’re Doing: Please direct any concerns to the library director, Bo Adams (rmadams@emory.edu).

Thank you for helping us make Pitts a welcoming space during finals!

As we all begin a new Fall semester, Pitts Theology Library is excited to welcome new students, and to see familiar faces back at Candler!

Set yourself up for success by getting familiar with Pitts spaces, hours, and policies. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us at pitts.emory.edu/ask with any questions, and we’ll look forward to seeing you at the library!

Hours

Pitts is open seven days a week during the semester. Monday-Thursday we’re open 7:30am- 9:00pm, Fridays 7:30am-6pm, Saturdays 10:00am-5pm, and Sundays 2:00pm-8:00pm. You can find our full hours at pitts.emory.edu/hours.

Food & Drinks

Please help us keep the library clean and our books safe. Drinks in covered containers and small snacks are permitted at Pitts, but please refrain from bringing full meals into the library. You should enjoy your meals in the atrium just outside the library. In addition, we ask that you clean up after yourself. Please be aware of the recycling and compost receptacles on every floor of the library and dispose of waste properly.

Spaces

Please remember to tap or swipe your EmoryCard to enter the library!

While here, keep in mind that you are sharing the space and be respectful of others. All Emory students, faculty, and staff, as well as community patrons, are welcome in the library. Please be hospitable in sharing outlets, tables, and other resources and maintaining a low volume in conversations and collaborative work.

Pitts has small group study rooms available for booking at pitts.emory.edu/rooms. These rooms can be reserved for up to two hours per person per day and up to a week in advance. Please review the room policies before booking and be aware that although these spaces are great for group work, they are not soundproof!
