The University continues to benefit from the generosity of many individuals who support the Book Endowment Fund and contribute in other ways through the Friends of the Library. There is nothing more fundamental to the Library's mission than supporting and advancing academic work. Our web site addresses this mission in a wide variety of ways, and with an eye to the varying interests of students, scholars, and the general public. The freely available services are all accessible through links on our Research Resources page . Probably the most popular destination is our online catalog, available as a telnet link.
More specialized links are also available.
Our services as a Federal Depository Library are described on our Government Documents page. Those interested in Methodist scholarship will find an informational page on the United Methodist Archives Center . The web site's offerings for Drew University's own students, staff, and faculty members reflect the fact that our electronic services in general are undergoing rapid expansion. On a more prosaic level, most research eventually involves the use of forms such as Interlibrary Loan requests, Closed Reserve faculty requests, and Book Acquisition requests. These are provided from our site's Library Forms section on the Research Resources page and can be submitted electronically if you are using a Drew Network computer, or through the University's proxy server .
