The Periodicals Collection covers as wide a range of subject areas as possible, with appropriate materials that support curriculum needs. In addition to scholarly journals, the Library strives to maintain a collection of general interest titles. Depending upon the availability of funds, the Library will consider titles to support individual faculty research.
Some back titles are available in microform format and are stored in acid free cabinets.
Other back issues and bound volumes are housed on the mezzanine level. Back issues of The New York Times and The State Newspaper are available on microfilm. The newspaper collection consists of international, national, regional, and local papers. They present political and social viewpoints and will be as complete as the budget will allow. Newspapers on microform are local, regional, and national titles.
