Reviews of Miller Nichols Library (Library)

Joseph Gilligan

This is a neat library that has gone through a lot of transition over the last decade as the University migrates almost all of the actual paper texts to a giant warehouse style room that is climate controlled and serviced by a robot. The idea is that students can request books that are tightly packed away while the rest of the library, instead of being used for shelf space, can be group study rooms and open areas for computer labs and other research. The bottom floor has a large music archive and the first floor above it has a coffee shop. Commonly there is a well done display on the top floor that Historians and librarians put together educating library patrons on something interesting. The third-floor recently got a large collection of fossils and minerals from the science building as a new location for the geology Museum.

good place to work but i can’t give 5 stars because it’s named after Miller Nichols and he sucks

Hector Bernal

Great place to study especially the 4th floor the quiet study floor where there are plenty tables, and outlets for your laptop. And the library staff are very helpful if you need help finding the different resources they offer.

Everything is great. But parking lot is too small. In addition, the furniture is too old .

I like 4th floor. Awesome place to work.

A modern library with glass and whiteboards as aids for math and science learning. Wonderful smiling staff and librarians who are willing to assist with book searches and research. Extendable electrical outlets for thousands of students with laptops and wifi printing. A floor with all levels of loudness (first to third) and fourth floor silent floor. Come by on Thursdays and ask for a tour of the Robot....lots and lots of books for all genres.

Love this place to study.

It is a really nice place to study. Sometimes the hours are a little inconvenient but not a big deal when there's other places on campus to go. The library is open to the public as a sign says. My only complaint is that before even noon the trashes always end up stuffed full and I've never seen it emptied.

Great place to do school work. I love going there. I really don't like how it closes so early on Friday and Saturday. It's a library at a University not a regular public library. It should be open long past 6. People need to study on the weekends too!

Ahmed Abdulkadir

Greatest library so far, specially 4th floor which is the quite floor

Eric E

As everyone else says and I whole heartily agree, the 4th floor is a great, quite, spot to get things done.

You would think that UMKC would have some portion of it be 24 hrs like other universities or at lease reasonable hours on the weekends

Took the MPRE in this building. This is a nice building with a comfortable environment and comfortable seating. Fair amount of glass and natural light throughout.
