The library is a growing organism where students have access to millions of digital resources including eBooks, databases and streaming videos anywhere on and off campus. With three floors of quiet research spaces for individual and group work, the library’s physical collection contains thousands of books, CDs, DVDs, and hard copy journals.
In addition to providing graduate research workshops each semester and personalized one-on-one research appointments for all students, the Library team is proactive in supporting the curriculum with live instruction sessions for research-based online and in-person classes.
Furthermore, the Library updates the eTextbook Initiative every semester, facilitating the purchase of as many unlimited user ebooks as fiscally possible for required textbooks. This helps to decrease student college costs and increase student retention and satisfaction scores for the undergraduate and graduate students alike.
There are several computer stations throughout the library with wi-fi and printing availability.
- The library PCs allow all students and faculty to access SPSS
- The library Macs allow all students and faculty to access SPSS and Adobe products: Photoshop, Illustrator, InCopy, InDesign, Dreamweaver, Premier Pro, Lightroom and AfterEffects
