New ADA-compatible Desk!

       

This excellent table’s legs are positioned towards the rear, which allows wheelchairs to slide fully underneath the unit. Also, the crank at the front of the table permits uses to raise/lower the unit to meet their individual needs, thus accommodating all types of wheelchairs and scooters.

We're truly happy to be able to make our resources more fully accessible to patrons who are not ambulatory.

New Stuff!

Yes, loads of the books in the stacks look like (and/or are) antiques, but please know that we're acquiring new books(and DVD's and e-books and and...) all the time.  We have an extraordinary crew of folks working behind the scenes to make sure our collection is up-to-date, comprehensive, and of specific use to students, faculty and members of the community.
Though we're technically an academic library we have a very extensive collection -- just check out our cookbooks, or horse books, or popular DVD's (new discs include The Way and Midnight in Paris, 2 of my favorites from 2011) or novels, or or...!
