Faculty Services
The Libraries support faculty teaching and research. We partner with faculty to promote student success by providing research help, services, and instruction. Many of the library's scholarly resources have been acquired based on faculty input and we welcome your participation. Each librarian is ready to provide help with a research project, collaborate with you on the design of assignments requiring research skills, or discuss suggestions for new acquisitions for the libraries' collections.
