ANSWER
Stanford University Libraries do not have one single closing time; it depends on which library you mean and the day. For example, Cecil H. Green Library’s library and circulation desk closes at 9 p.m. on Monday through Thursday, 7 p.m. on Friday, and 6 p.m. on Saturday, while the Robert Crown Law Library staffed hours are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on its posted page.

- Check the specific Stanford library’s current hours page before you go, since hours vary by location and date.
Which Stanford library are you asking about?
Stanford’s main libraries and centers have different hours, so the closing time changes by location and day. The official hours page shows Cecil H. Green Library, Bowes Art & Architecture Library, the Archive of Recorded Sound, and other Stanford Libraries sites with separate schedules, and the Stanford Libraries homepage links to current library hours.
- Cecil H. Green Library’s library and circulation hours are 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday, and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, with Sunday at 12 p.m. to 9 p.m.
- Robert Crown Law Library’s posted staffed hours are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., and its page says to call for updates.
- Stanford also notes holiday closures; for Presidents’ Day 2026, most Stanford University Libraries were closed, with the Lathrop 24-hour study space and Lane Medical Library as exceptions.
