Library Mission & Policies
Mission
The mission of the library staff is to support the training and education of individuals for careers in the design, media arts, culinary arts, and business-related fields.
To achieve this mission, the library staff instructs, coaches, and supports students in fulfilling their learning needs both one-on-one and in classroom instruction. We develop and maintain a quality collection of resources consisting of books, periodicals, audio-visual materials, and online databases that directly support students' learning needs. We provide access to remote resources through online resources and cooperative borrowing agreements with libraries throughout the United States.
