The library supports the educational mission of
the University by maintaining and developing collections of information
resources that primarily meet the research needs of students, faculty,
and staff. Library staff select, purchase, and organize library materials
such as books, journals, microfilm, and electronic resources. More
importantly, library staff teach users how to access, use and evaluate
all information resources available in the library and electronically.
The library's participation in library consortia, such as HELIN,
enhances access to information resources for both scholarship and
pleasure. Providing a user-friendly, stimulating environment conducive
to lifelong learning, intellectual freedom, and information gathering
are also functions of the library. |
