Entry Door Procedure
ESU students, faculty, and staff will need to swipe their eCard to enter the library
through the Main Entry Door after 6:00 p.m.
Members of the public are welcome in the building daily from opening to 6:00 p.m.
or closing, whichever comes earlier.
The card swipe is located to the right of the library’s Main Entrance.
There is an automatic door (ADA Door) located to the left of the library building
with a blue button that must be pressed for entry.
If you have trouble entering the building, please call the Circulation Desk at (570)
422-3126 and a staff person will come to the door to assist you.
Library Closing Procedures
There are three announcements made during closing. The first one is made 30 minutes
before closing to let patrons and visitors know that all library materials are to
be brought to the circulation desk to be checked back in (returned) and this includes
reserves and laptops.
A reminder announcement will be made approximately 5-10 minutes before closing that
the library will be closing soon and the lights will blink for anyone wearing headsets
or who may have missed the first announcement.
A final announcement will be made at closing.
The lights will be turned off following the final announcement.
Everyone in the library must leave by closing for safety purposes.
Thank you for your cooperation.
