The University of Oregon campus will remain limited to essential operations through Sunday; all events that had been scheduled for the day have been canceled. Knight Library will reopen at 8:30 a.m. Sunday and will resume its normal hours.

Crews are working diligently to reopen campus for regular operations on Monday morning; please check the UO Alerts blog for updates.
