posted on April 11: Spring time is final exam time

If it's April – it must be exam time.

This year, McMaster students write exams from Friday April 12 through to Monday April 29. (See Final Exam Timetable for a complete listing of exams.)

The library is probably the most-used University facility during exams.

To meet students' study needs, extended hours are offered at Mills Memorial Library and the H. G. Thode Library of Science and Engineering:

Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to midnight;

Saturday, 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. (Sat. April 27 only: 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.);

Sunday, 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. (Sun. April 28 only: 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.).

For the month of April, the Health Sciences Library and the Innis Library operate on their usual term schedule.

The popular all-night study area will run again during the exam period, starting at midnight on April 11.

The Innis Library once again plays host, with the McMaster Students Union (MSU) providing student invigilators to patrol the space, ensure that the food, drink and noise policies are enforced, and take periodic head counts.

Librarian Vivian Lewis reports that the service is extremely popular and well used, particularly between the hours of midnight and 3 a.m. The round-the-clock opening begins tonight (Thursday, April 11) at 11 p.m. until Saturday, April 27 at 10 a.m..

The program, run jointly by the MSU and the Department of Student Affairs, provides a quiet environment for studying, and gives students access to the collections, the computers and reference resources, as well as the photocopiers. However, no library services (borrowing, reserve pickup, etc.) are available.

Two MSU services are closed during exams: the GLBT Centre and the Student Health Education Centre. All others, including MSU administration, the Info Centre, the Design and Copy Centre and the Snack Shack remain open. The Student Walk Home Attendant Team is also available during the exam period.
