WELCOME FROM THE DIRECTOR
Spring Semester 2008

Welcome to the spring semester. We are delighted to see you on campus again following the Christmas break. The Thomas Winston Cole, Sr. Library Staff extends a hearty welcome to all the new members of the Wiley College family. We have an exciting year ahead of us.

The library staff is committed to excellence and to the College's overall goals of teaching, learning, and service.We are committed to making the Library "The Center" where users are secure in knowing that they will have the facilities, services, resources, assistance, and support that they need.

In addition to a growing collection of over 83,000 volumes and a journal collection of over 300 titles, a variety of other resources are made available via the World Wide Web (WWW) and through other expanding information technology resources. The library staff encourages students, faculty and staff to view the bi-monthly acquisitions list on file in Cole Library and via the library link on the Wiley College web site.

Again, welcome to the Thomas Winston Cole, Sr. Library and its information resources. The staff is eager to establish and maintain a link between you and the wealth of information available at the Library. We look forward to assisting with your information and research needs.
