Tours and Group Visits to Hoole
The W.S. Hoole Special Collections Library offers tours of its facilities to visitors and to groups on the University of Alabama campus and the community. Advanced notice is required. For faculty wishing to bring a class to the Hoole Library, we ask that you give us several weeks advanced notice if possible, so that we can prepare adequately for your visit. We are limited in the number of students we can accommodate because we do not have a classroom or auditorium in the library.Visitors to The University of Alabama are encouraged to visit the W.S. Hoole Special Collections Library. The lobby area serves as an exhibit space and features exhibits throughout the calendar year.To see what is only display currently at the Hoole Library, click here.
University of Alabama professors should contact Jessica Lacher-Feldman directly with regard to classroom visits and bibliographic instruction at the Hoole Library. If you would like to arrange a tour or talk, please contact us at Archives.
