Welcome to Bennett Library. We are here to support the instructional and informational needs of all on-campus and distance learning Faculty. We have found that faculty that use our resources and services set a great example for their students by encouraging them to use the library. Learning to find, evaluate and use information resources is critical to student success as well as an important lifelong skill. Please do not hesitate to us with any questions you may have. Schedule an orientation of instruction session for yourself or your class. We look forward to working with you!
