The College of University Libraries & Learning Sciences’ combination of an academic library system and a degree granting program – that is not library science – is unique in the country. As an educational partner and source of quality scholarship for the entire University we offer superior expertise, services and resources.
The Organization, Information and Learning Sciences Program (OILS) which merged with University Libraries in 2012, awards both undergraduate and graduate degrees and offers a large number of classes in an online environment focusing on adult learning; instructional design and technology; the design, development, delivery, and evaluation of training; organization development; knowledge management; distance education; eLearning and data management.
University Libraries has over three million volumes and millions more electronic resources and combines specialized and traditional collections of great depth with a dynamic approach to instruction and learning.
Services and collections are spread among four libraries and includes a special collections unit.
