Welcome New and Returning Students

We can help all new and returning students to get their campus computer ID and password in the library.  Just bring your class schedule to the library and a library staff member will help you get your ID and your ANGEL ID. 

We have a small book display on the Library main floor all about Green Studies, an area new to Sullivan.  Books may be checked out!

Don’t forget your college ID; it is, in fact, also your library card with which you can check out up to 12 books at a time.  You can also access your library account online to check the books you have out and make renewals.  Let us show you how!

Wondering if your professor has put the textbook for your class on reserve?  Click on “Sullivan Course Reserves” on the Library Home page under “Find Books”.  You can search under course name or professor’s name.  A librarian will be glad to assist you.

You will soon discover that the library is the focal point of a lot of academic activity: bring your cappuccino and browse our extensive magazine and journal collections; read the newspapers; study in one of our private study rooms; use one of our computers to do research or check your email.  Remember too that upstairs is the Center For Learning, where you can hook up with other services, including the peer and professional tutoring program.  Think of the Hermann Memorial Library as the “center” of the campus. 

The staff welcomes all of you, and we hope to get to know you in the coming weeks.  Have a great semester!
