The Jean Burr Smith Library is a fully automated learning resource
center located on the main floor of Chapman Hall. The library
provides a wide range of services to students, faculty, staff and
members of the community.
The library’s collection is
composed of a broad selection of books, scholarly journals, popular
magazines, newspapers, electronic databases and audiovisual materials
for research and recreational use. The library also loans
framed art prints.
Within the library, workstations
provide access to the library catalog, electronic databases, the
Internet, campus-networked resources and Microsoft Office
Suite. Microform reader-printers, low-vision readers,
TV/VCR/DVD units, graphing calculators, and a coin-operated photocopier
are available at the library as well.
Library staff
assists with reference, circulation, interlibrary loan, and computer
needs. Additionally, librarians provide library orientations,
information, literacy instruction and special classes at the request of
faculty.
The library’s well designed website provides
remote access to the library catalog, numerous full-text databases,
Internet subject guides and research help. Interactive forms
are provided to ask reference questions, make interlibrary loan or
renewal requests and for faculty to request library
instruction.
