WELCOME TO THE CUC LIBRARY!

The Klinck Memorial Library collaborates with the CUC community to provide exceptional service and meaningful research.

CUC students can easily request articles the library does not own within the databases, resulting in a 4 business day turnaround. This is a free digital service the university provides to students, faculty, and staff.
The library has three floors of quiet research spaces for individual and group work, in addition to thousands of books, CDs, DVDs, vinyl records, and hard copy journals.
Professional librarian research services are available in-person, by phone, email, or Zoom every day of the week during the Fall and Spring semesters. Summer semester hours are M-F.
The library is a member of the I-Share network, a collection of over 80 academic libraries in Illinois. This means that CUC students can borrow materials from these libraries for free through the catalog.
