The library supports the academic mission of the University offering a full range of services including library instruction, interlibrary loan, media, reference, and on-line searching. Others may use the collection in the building or may borrow material through interlibrary loan, reciprocal arrangements or on a fee basis. Phone 879-3669 for further information. In addition it lists items on reserve by course and instructor, titles on order, and periodical issues as they are checked in.
Access is available from one of the public terminals in the library or through the campus network.
Direct access to over 5 million volumes at 13 Northwest academic libraries. Commercial databases and fee based mediated searches are restricted to University faculty, staff, students and to consortium members. However, government databases on the Internet are available to the public. In addition, there is a growing number of federal government CD-ROMs that may be checked out or loaded at the Reference workstations by appointment. Contact the systems coordinator to schedule an appointment.
