The Third Floor of the Knowledge Center Main Library includes stairs that lead up from the Second Floor Atrium on the east end of the floor, near the Special Collections and University Archives department. There is a space in the center of the floor that is open to the Atrium below. Elevators leading to the upper and lower floors of the library are near the southeast end of the floor.
The Basque Library endeavors to collect, protect, and distribute information, regardless of format, on Basques living outside of the Basque Country (known as the Basque Diaspora), especially those in the US and other English-speaking countries, in order to facilitate further research in the area.
Important: Though the Basque Library is located on the Third Floor, it is only accessible via the north entrance, north stairs, or elevator near the north entrance from the second floor.
Special Collections and University Archives contain a variety of materials related to the history of Northern Nevada and the campus community. Users can reach these materials by walking straight off the stairs from the main atrium or to the left from the public elevators.
The Third Floor South stacks house materials with Library of Congress call numbers that fall within the A-DE range. Users can reach these materials by taking two right-hand turns when leaving the stairs from the main atrium or by taking two left turns from the public elevators.
