Corriher-Linn-Black Library
With the completion of a major renovation in 2008, the Library has become an increasingly important nucleus for research on the Catawba campus. In addition to its growing collection of print books and journals, the Library also houses the largest instruction lab on campus, laptops for checkout, and wireless access throughout its interior and outside patio. These features combined with ample collaborative and private study spaces, have made the Library a major campus technology hub.
The Library became a selective depository of U.S. Government documents in the 1890's and a selective depository for N.C. State documents beginning in 1995. The Library also participates in the North Carolina Libraries and Virtual Education (NC LIVE) network and LYRASIS, the nation's largest regional Library membership organization, for access to state, national, and international electronic resources and services.
