  • Request for Service

Facilities

The Office of Facilities Services is charged with the maintenance, repair, cleaning and renovation of the academic buildings, residence halls, grounds and infrastructure of Barnard College.

Our primary goal is the creation and maintenance of a physical environment conducive to the learning process. Well maintained and quality facilities are vital to the college's mission and help to enrich the college life of our students. The Office of Facilities Services' staff members are committed to providing quality facilities that enhance the educational experience of Barnard College students and contribute to the continued growth of the college community.

Hours of Operation

The Office of Facilities Services is located in Barnard Hall Rm 105 M and is staffed Monday - Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. Facilities Services Mechanics are on duty 24 hours - 7 days/week. to monitor our operating equipment and to respond to emergencies.

Waste Handling and Collection Processes

Starting Monday, May 24, facilities staff will no longer remove waste or recycling from individual offices or classrooms. In academic buildings, we ask that faculty and students sort their waste at centrally located waste stations on each floor, hallway, or common area. This new protocol aims to: 

  1. Reduce traffic flow into offices to mitigate COVID-19 transmission risk to building occupants and custodial staff, 
  2. Ensure that facilities staff are able to complete required Covid-19 cleaning protocols, 
  3. Increase waste diversion rates. 

The Office of Sustainability offers waste sorting workshops.

More details about this program can be found in these FAQs. 

Emergency Procedures

The Office of Facilities Services considers any event that endangers the life, health, or safety of a person or possible damage to college property as an emergency condition. These conditions may include flood, water pipe breakage, steam leak, electrical short or exposed wiring, rodent infestation, excessive trash accumulations, darkened stairwells, etc.

Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. - 5 p.m.: 
Call Facilities at 212-854-2041 (4-2041 from a campus phone)
or email facilities@barnard.edu

At all other times:
Call the CARES Line at 212-854-3362 (4-3362 from a campus phone)
CARES staff will in turn assist with questions about submitting a work order, and where necessary, can contact the facilities supervisor on duty to address time sensitive needs.
