Our circulating collections have been moved to the newly-renovated [Cabot Science Library](http://library.harvard.edu/cab) and Harvard Depository. Please consult [HOLLIS](http://hollis.harvard.edu), Harvard Library's catalog, to find the current location of any item you wish to borrow.

A small, non-circulating collection of our most popular books, as well as physics classics and books by Harvard physics faculty, will remain on premises. **Circulating copies of all these books are available either in Cabot or one of the other Harvard libraries.**

All are welcome to use our lovely, light-filled, and comfortable reading room to read, study, or just relax!

**Access**:  
The Reading Room is open to the Harvard community as well as qualified non-Harvard researchers Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm.

After-hours and weekend access to the building is controlled by a card-swipe system. Physics department faculty, students, staff members, as well as undergraduate physics concentrators and qualified visitors, may apply for after-hours access. Please see the [ **Building Services FAQs**](/resources/building#access) page for further information.
