Building & Facility

Meriam Library is growing—literally! Near the elevators on the second floor, you’ll find our new seed library, stocked with FREE flower, fruit, herb, and vegetable seeds to help you start your own garden. All seeds are heirloom varieties (absolutely no GMO) purchased from small BIPOC farmers. A seed library works just like a regular library: you “borrow” seeds at planting time, grow them out, and are encouraged to save and return seeds at the end of the season so others can grow too.

The Wildcat Family Friendly Study Space in the Meriam Library is a fun and cozy area near the children's and young adult books on the 4th floor. Sometimes parents or guardians go to college later in life or go back to college to continue their education. The WFFSS is a special space for students who also care for kids, so they can study while those children enjoy reading and exploring new stories.

Be sure to grab a copy of the popular Meriam Megaphone newsletter that gives you all you need to know about the Meriam Library and more! In our Fall 2024, Issue 1, you can read about the importance of critical  thinking, why book bans are sweeping the country, what cool events are scheduled, and where to go for research help! Grab yours today from the Circulation Desk on the first floor of the library!
