Mission Statement

The Mack Library exists to support the University's curriculum and to provide materials for the spiritual and personal enrichment of the University family, through the functions of collecting, organizing, classifying and distributing information. In the Information Age, our staff serves as the mediator in the process of locating data, providing the information to the student and interpreting the knowledge in a manner which results in understanding by the student. No mere custodian of information, the library is a vibrant participant in the process of developing raw data into usable knowledge applied with wisdom and understanding.

Library Goals

• Develop, provide, and promote services and resources to assist patrons in both accessing and using information effectively

• Participate in resource sharing with other organizations and libraries
