Fixing a flat
Countway Library Bike Pump
The circulation desk at Countway Library of Medicine has an air pump for bike tires that all members of the Harvard Longwood community are welcome to use during normal library hours. The pump fits both Presta and Schrader valves.

Repair Stations
The repair stations on campus have all the tools you need to fix a flat tire; however, the pumps can be unreliable. Since they’re stored outside, the pumps’ seals often wear out and break. We recommend using the pump at the Countway Library circulation desk instead.
