T he Library emphasizes electronic formats for the convenience of our students and researchers. The full complement of the Libraries' electronic resources can be accessed through the Libraries'
Resources
page. The Rome Library is staffed primarily by graduate assistants, who change periodically. The current graduate assistant is Sara Edmonson. One of the most effective curriculum support tools for the Rome campus is the Libraries'
eReserves
service. Items not available in the Rome Library but available in the Main Library (e.g. chapters of books and articles from journals not available online) are scanned and made available electronically.
