Graduate Faculty Reception

On May 3rd, 2016 the Cannon Memorial Library hosted a Graduate Faculty Reception to help faculty know what all the library could offer. Some faculty have their students use the library but never thought about how it could be used in their own research. The library is here for all the students, faculty, and staff of Saint Leo. Please come make use of it! Available online and in person!
We also hoped that through the reception we could find out what the graduate programs needed as far as resources and perhaps what we had on the shelves that are long out dated and shouldn’t be there anymore. Are you a Graduate Faculty member who didn’t get to make it to our reception? Stop by the library and we’ll be happy to chat with you! Please see Robert Fernandez, Janet Franks, or Michelle Joy. No matter who you are, if there is some resource you think the library needs, let us know! We can’t get everything, but we’d rather get things we know people will use for their research than things that will just stay on the shelves. Please contact us if you have any questions! -- Michelle Joy, Distance Learning Librarian

If so, don't worry! The Interlibrary Loan (ILL) Department can send the book, article, or section of a book to you. 

Just fill out one of the Interlibrary Loan forms and your item will be sent to you. It's as easy as that!
