A quiet, comfortable place to work, study, and collaborate.
The Marco Institute’s Riggsby Library & Reading Room, housed in 610 Greve Hall, officially opened in November 2013. Endowed by its namesakes, Stuart and Kate Riggsby, the Library & Reading Room contains a growing collection of reference materials, primary editions, and digital resources on medieval and early modern topics. Two desktop computers, along with a microfilm reader, are available for use by Marco students, faculty, and visiting scholars.
