51萝莉

Students

Welcome traditional, non-traditional, and commuter students to the 51萝莉 Library! This page will provide you with a brief overview of the services and resources that are available to support your coursework and research. While you are on campus, you can access any of the Library's electronic resources without logging in. (Check out our !).

You can find more information about the Library through our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page.

Services

Using the Library
If you're wondering how you check out books, study room keys, and other Library materials, it's easy: your student ID card is your Library card. So make sure you get one and keep it with you if you intend to use the Library!

Computers
There are two computer labs in the Library - one on the first floor and one on the second floor. The first floor lab tends to be noisier than the second floor lab because of the Provisions on Demand (P.O.D.) and the flow of people in and out of the building, so bear that in mind. Printing is available in both labs and wirelessly through a kiosk on the third floor.

Copy & Fax Machines
There are two photocopiers on the first floor and one on the second floor in Media Services. The cost to make copies is .10 per page. Copy machines accept coins and bills ($1-$5). All change is returned in coins. The library staff can not provide change. There is also a fax machine on the first floor. It can be used to send documents, but it is not recommended for receiving.

Interlibrary Loan
Need access to something that the Library doesn't have? We can borrow it from another library and lend it to you through our Interlibrary Loan (ILL) service. For more on ILL, including how to set up an account, click here.
