We're both college-age in grad school. On Monday- this fine ass girl walked past me in the library and I had to do a double take. She noticed the double take because she kind of half-turned around. She then walked by again 20 minutes later- might've even turned towards me, but I only noticed her after she was already 10ft past. Oh well.
I then choose a new study spot facing a big, clear glass wall on the same floor the next day. She walks past that and I look up, lock eye contact, and smile (I'm kind've caught off guard) she smiles and mouths "Hey" as she walks past and then disappears and I look back down to my work. Successful day.
Back in the library and I'm out in the open so I can see her again and make a move. She hasn't showed up yet and we're getting close to the end of the semester in a week or two. Because its a very tight-nit community of like 600 students in this grad-school. It wasn't hard to find her linkedin, and we have 4 mutual connections.
Would it be weird as shit if I just add her even though she hasn't told me her name and I just looked her up and found it. Or would it be ok because she seems to be interested, she knows I'm interested, and there's no other way to contact?

If it's the only way then do it: nothing to lose

I can't believe the "advice" I'm seeing in this thread. Smh.
First of all, why are you internet stalking her...on LinkedIn of all websites? That's some beta ass shit. Don't worry, I've done it too. But my suggestion is to get off your phone and talk to her irl.
Which leads me to the second point. Next time you see her...TALK TO HER. Don't just smile at her, don't "lock eyes" any think that you're living in a Disney film. Next time she struts past you, start a conversation. Tell her you think she's cute. Crack a joke. Ask for her phone number. Even if she flat out rejects you, the experience will be worth it.
Your opportunity is sinking fast. There's only one way to save it. You know what to do.

It would be kinda creepy if you added her, think about it, suddenly popping up in her social media like a fan...Instead wait out for next time your paths cross Wich is likely since it's a small student community as you said, just wait for it but don't get your hopes too high (might have higher hopes after looking her up)
