The David Allan Hubbard Library works to be as proactive and helpful as we can be for our patrons. In order to meet budgetary constraints placed on the Fuller Seminary campus as a whole, and to be good stewards of our resources, Library hours have been reduced starting June 17, 2019. The reduction was calculated by the current trends in library usage as well as the expense of powering the building for the majority of the day.

Starting June 17, library hours will be:

Monday – Friday: 9am – 6pm
Saturday: Noon-4pm
Sunday: Closed

Extended hours for finals may change but will still operate for the weeks 10 and 11 of the quarter.

For after-hour services, the following is available:

• Potentially moving a Wepa printing machine to another area on campus to allow for printing when the Library is closed.
• Places like the Catalyst and Ambrose Cafe are open after the Library closes.
• The Library has a page filled with “How-Tos” in video format for assistance with our various online resources and are available at any time.
• Fuller Theological Seminary is a part of the American Theological Library Association (ATLA). Your Fuller ID will allow access to any library that is a part of this consortia. You can click here to read more or here to see a spreadsheet of participating institutions.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If you have any questions, please feel free to email lib-info@fuller.edu.

Gratefully,
Hubbard Library Staff
