Library Administration

As Campus Dean it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Nelson Poynter Memorial Library (NPML). Located along the waterfront on the USF St. Petersburg campus, NPML promotes and supports faculty and student-center learning and research in an inviting, creative, and flexible environment.

NPML is an airy building with abundant natural light as well as views of Bayboro Harbor on its south side. Seeking to support faculty and student-centered research and learning in an inviting, innovative, and flexible environment, there are a variety of study and collaborative spaces across the building’s three floors. Services include support and access to electronic and physical resources, textbooks, printing, research assistance, and technology support through the Student Technology Center (STC). The STC’s Makerspace offers access to 3D printing, vinyl cutting, and provides additional support on emerging technology tools and resources. Our gallery offers a revolving series of exhibitions throughout the year, highlighting our special collections as well as work from campus, university, and community partners. Our Chillville space is the ideal place to take a break to work on a puzzle, play a game, or engage in other creative activities.

I invite you to explore our spaces, collections, and services and reach out if you have questions or ideas or opportunities for collaboration!
