While visiting the library you can browse over 70,000 items including magazines, DVDs and CDs. Perhaps you’ll be reminded of a topic you’ve always wanted to explore before time got away. Delight. Relax. Root. Connect and Commune. Are you planning a trip or other endeavor that requires immediate, concerted information? Select and request from over 3,400,000 multimedia items held by our partner libraries in the SWAN catalog. Additional resources are now online and available for just in time use. Explore. Expedite. Flourish. Conserve your resources. Are you on a quest? WorldCat is a global database with well over 1,400,000,000 items. On your own, or with the assistance of our reference staff, these works are available for your use. Thrive. Transcend. Blossom. Become yourself.

Sincerely,Sophia Penelope Anastos
