About the Building
Mullins Library is the main library facility on campus, where the majority of the University Libraries' central offices, study space, and collections are available.
Built in 1968, Mullins replaced Vol Walker Hall as the main university library. Read more about the history of Mullins Library. We've recently completed a major renovation that looks back to the building's midcentury roots while looking forward to new technologies and services.
