We are excited to announce that construction to expand and renovate the UC Merced Library’s archives will begin Monday, November 10, 2025 with contractor Burke Diversified. The McFadden-Willis Reading Room will be open during this time. The remainder of the 4th floor will be closed until construction is completed in summer 2026.

Due to budget constraints, the UC Merced Library will be discontinuing its subscription to ReWorks later this year (December 31, 2025). We encourage users to export their references as soon as it is convenient.

We are kicking off the Carter Joseph Abrescy and Larry Kranich Library Award for Student Research Excellence for 2025-2026 with a call for applications.
