The Hekman Library is more than books. This website is your gateway to millions of high quality and scholarly electronic sources located on the web. Google is great, but our research tools are even better! BTW, we also have more than 600,000 books.  

The Hekman Library is more than materials; it's also people. Research specialists will help you find the sources you need to complete research assignments and they'll save you lots of time and frustration. The entire staff is dedicated to making your experience in the library satisfying. Let us know if this doesn't happen.
