Traditionally academic libraries housed books and periodicals for use by academic researchers. A modern academic library offers much more than just circulation of books and reference services. We still offer those traditional services, but the electronic age means much of our content can be accessed remotely, making it easy to use the library wherever you have a cell or internet connection.
All CWU faculty can utilize the library and the full range of services.
Erin Sulla is liaison to College in the High School and can help direct you to subject specific reference librarians if you need research assistance.
