Library resources go through a review process.
Librarians select books, magazines, journals, databases, and Web sites. The library collects sources considered reliable, valuable and relevant to courses at Alvernia University.

Library resources are free or discounted for your use.
Libraries are able to purchase one copy which can be shared by many people.

Library resources are organized.
Items are organized so you can find all the sources on a topic. For example, when you search for a book in the library catalog you will get a call number. The books shelved near the same call number will cover a similar topic.

Library resources come with personal assistance.
Libraries have staff who are trained to help you. They'll help you learn to use online resources and answer any questions that you have.
