Full instructions and step-by-step pictures on how to get to our library

Parking

There is Visitor Parking at the Museum of Art, located on the northeast side of campus.

To get there, take Bulldog Blvd. heading east. You will pass under two pedestrian bridges; drive until you come to the Visitor Parking Booth. A security guard will direct you to park on the right. The farther south you park, the shorter your walk will be. There is handicapped parking close to the entrance of the Museum of Art. We are located on the second floor. Walk down the first flight of steps and turn right. Go through the glass doors with a sign above it marked Religion/Family History – American Heritage.
