The Library is here to help

 

Our virtual presence lets you access resources straight from your desktop, but visiting the physical library has even more benefits:

 

  • Computer stations on the network, in addition to separate computers for checking your personal email.
  • WiFi (ask a librarian for the password)
  • Lounge areas for browsing the latest industry periodicals and legal journals, as well as tables and study carrels to spread your work out.
  • As always, librarians are available to assist with any of your research needs.
