Directions to the Biology Library

From College Walk (the pedestrian boulevard corresponding to W.116th Street between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue), walk up the right (east) side steps of Low Plaza. Continue on the walkway that runs along the east side of the domed Low Library Building. After passing Uris Hall's terrace, this walkway ends at the four door entrance to the fourth floor of the Mudd Building.

Inside Mudd, take the elevator to the sixth floor. As you exit the elevator, there are, to the left, double doors that lead to the Fairchild Building's sixth floor. During off-hours these doors will open only if you swipe your valid Columbia I.D. in the cardswipe on the wall just to the right.

Once through these doors, go down the ramp and bear left. Follow the hallway. Just after two swinging doors at the end of this hall you will see the library entrance on the right.

Note: The library is open to Columbia affiliates only. Those without a valid Columbia I.D. should first visit the Library Information Office (LIO) in room 201 of Butler Library, for information on library privileges and access.
