Using resources at the UWP library

Many of the UW Parkside library's resources are available for use by the general public. The reference area computers can be used by anyone to search the web or any of the library's online databases. Books can be checked out if you have a special borrower's card (information here). There are viewing rooms in the library for watching DVDs and listening to CDs from the collection. The library also has group study rooms to reserve for group project work.

10 Reasons to Use the Library (Cornell University) offers suggestions on why using the library will help you with homework, projects, and other kinds of research.
