Library Services

The libraries provide information and instruction to every Monroe College student as a central element of the educational experience. The collections span the entire academic curriculum, including materials of interest within and outside the scope of courses. In addition to onsite resources and reference assistance, Monroe College offers students extensive online library and research tools and resources. The libraries provide access to print and electronic books and journals, databases, research guides, librarians, the Virtual Reference Desk, and other academic libraries (LYRASIS). Discovery for Monroe College is a search platform that simultaneously searches approximately 70% of the library's electronic resources. Research Guides use the LibGuides platform, which assists students with their research needs. For more information, visit Monroe College Libraries.
