Welcome to the Michael Schwartz Library faculty resource site. The Library strives to provide the best in traditional and innovative library services to assist you in your teaching and research. On this Faculty Page you will find access to a number of services specifically provided for the faculty as well as links to other basic resources.
For additional information, contact the subject librarians who are assigned to work with the faculty of each department to select materials for the collection, to provide instruction on library resources, and to communicate with the faculty about Library policies, collections, and services. We look forward to working with you to meet your informational needs.
