Library Tours
Look for announcements about “Library Tour Week” offered during the fall semester. Typical library tours last about 20 minutes and start at the East Circulation Desk near Starbucks in the J.D. Williams Library. Personalized library tours can also be arranged in advance. To request a tour, please email Melissa Dennis at mdennis@olemiss.edu.
