Dean's Welcome

Greetings, Coyotes!

Welcome to Summer 2024! We are happy you’re here!

Summers may be a little quieter, but there’s a lot of library offerings for you during this time! Our Makerspaces are available during the summer. You can stop by to visit and see the sample creations, or send your own 3D print request for the Innovation Lab. There will be new surprises in the space too, expanding maker options from 3D printing to other crafting. Think you have a voice for podcasting? Check out the Innovation Studio.

Connect with your fellow Coyotes this summer at our movie and game days! Keep a watch on our calendar and social media for dates and times.

Our library team is here for you, wherever “here” is for you! Ask a Librarian service is a wonderful place to begin. You have options to chat, phone, or text. There is even a service to chat with a librarian from one of our partners around the globe if you need help after hours! It’s even available 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. If you need more time to discuss your questions and projects in depth, you can schedule an appointment, in-person or virtual. Our team is here to help you be successful and de-mystify our wonderful resources!

We’ve got great electronic resources, that you can check out wherever you are as long as you have your Coyote ID. Here’s just a couple to give you an idea:

Asian Life in America, 1704-today The experience and impact of Asian Americans as recorded by the news media. Includes Series 1: 1704-1941, Series 2: 1942-2017, and Series 3: 2018-today.

New York Amsterdam News (1922-2010): ProQuest Historical Newspapers Historical coverage of one the oldest and most influential Black newspapers in the U.S. Digital images available, fully searchable.

Please follow our main website and social media for updates!
