The library was very busy this summer and there are some big changes we want to let you know about!

1. Our new library system is up and running! After several years of work, we are fully migrated to our new system. Our new discovery service, Primo, is really great and we think you will love it. If you want to learn more about the system OR you need help navigating it, please schedule a consultation with a librarian today. We can meet with you in-person or virtually and give you an introduction to Primo or answer your specific questions.

To schedule an appointment, please visit https://cia.libcal.com/appointments. There will also be a faculty-only online session on September 25. Please register for that session if you are an interested faculty member. 

 

2. The library now has access to Libby. Libby is an easy to use app that allows you to access ebooks and audiobooks anywhere, anytime. If you use Libby with your public library, you can add our library to your account. We provide access to a wide array of academic resources on Libby, including lots of classic literature. 

 

3. You asked and we were able to make it happen! The library has three beanbag chairs now! They are located in the back of the library by the group study room. We've already spotted students using them. Stop by and take a break!
