Special Hours
Due to the coronavirus, the Special Collections Building will be open to UGA faculty researchers ONLY by appointment Tuesday, March 17 through Sunday, May 10. Please email sclib@uga.edu to arrange an appointment.

Parking for off-campus visitors is available in the Hull Street deck at an hourly rate. Enter at the south entrance near Baxter Street. Library visitors can bypass the pay machine on the 3rd level and proceed directly to the front desk to sign in with their vehicle tag number to have their vehicle validated in the deck for the rest of that day.
UGA faculty, staff, and students will not be eligible for validated parking, and must pay the hourly rate to avoid a citation.
Extra visitor parking is offered at the Tate Center Parking Deck for an hourly fee. The Tate Center Parking Deck is located one block south of the intersection of Baxter Street and South Lumpkin Street. See: Parking Locations and Fees. All University of Georgia affiliates must abide by parking regulations set forth by UGA Parking Services.
