As part of UNLV Special Collections, the Center is open to anyone--you do not need to be a UNLV student, Nevada resident, or American citizen to read books and journals from the collections. Just head up to the third floor of Lied Library.

Since the materials in Special Collections do not circulate, there is no need for a UNLV library card.

UNLV Special Collections is open:

Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 9AM to 5PM

Tuesday, Thursday: 9AM to 9PM

Call 702-895-2234 for hours on holidays and during intersession.
