Please review the guides linked on this page for information about copyright, affordable educational resources, and online teaching resources. Also linked below are forms for suggesting purchases. Use the Suggest a Purchase form for a one-time purchase such as an eBook or video. Use the Suggest a Journal or Database form for ongoing purchases such as journals, databases or memberships.

The library will make every effort to fulfill requests but the final decision will be made based on:

• anticipated use, relevance or connection to courses and programs
• accuracy and authority
• cost
• publisher limitations

When completing forms, please provide as much information as possible in the interest of time and efficiency.

If your students need to do research for a paper, thesis or dissertation, they may benefit from instruction in how to access library resources.
