How Can the Library Help Faculty?

Keeping up-to-date on available research resources and how to use them will  facilitate your own research in addition to making it easier to answer your students' questions.

If you are pursuing a degree or researching for publication, the library staff can assist you with your research. 

Faculty Collaboration

We always welcome feedback from faculty and opportunities to collaborate with them.
