Michael Schwartz Library

Services for Undergraduate Students

The Michael Schwartz Library can be overwhelming for new students or first time visitors.  To make things a little easier, we have outlined a few basics to help get you started.  You may also find it helpful to read over our Library FAQ. 

CSU students must have a current VikingCard to borrow library materials or access library resources.  With a current VikingCard, you can:

Borrow books and materials from 84 other colleges and universities in the OhioLINK consortium. 

Borrow digital cameras, camcorders, and audio recorders for a 1-day loan period from Mulitmedia Services. 

Do research at home online using more than 100 electronic research databases as well as E-Journals, E-books and a variety of multimedia.  You can also use RefWorks to organize your research and format your bibliographies and footnotes. 

We hire for many different types of jobs, including shelving, staffing service desks, data entry, and administrative support.  We offer flexible hours that will fit your schedule.  Working with us can teach you the secrets of finding information you need to do your own research - and we make a great reference for your resumé!
