Did you know Lakeland Library subscribes to over 90 databases? Some databases are resource specific, focusing on academic research articles, e-books, or educational videos. Other databases are subject specific and focus on an area of research, like nursing. Check out our complete A-Z databases list for more resources for your end of semester research projects!

Why are libraries the tallest buildings in the world?

Because they have so many stories!

What did the librarian say to the person checking out 50 books? 

Don’t overdue it.

What did one librarian say to another?

Sorry I can’t hang out. My weekend is fully booked.

Ever wonder what the library does behind the scenes?

Lakeland Library's newsletter is made possible through a collaboration between members of multiple sub-departments in the library. Since everyone can login to the platform, library staff and faculty can work on the project each month at the same time. Once all content is added for the month, the newsletter goes through a brief editorial process to ensure quality information gets delivered to you. We would like to recognize Maria Armijo who adds the colorful graphics and Brian Hanna who adds interesting pictures of our book and activity displays each month. 

The newsletter will be taking a short break this summer, but we will return with fun and informative issues in Fall 2024. Remember, the library will be open all summer, so stop by!

Where Can I Study? Try the Library!

Looking for quiet study space, a group study table or collaborative study space with markerboards?  Whether you need to study with fewer distractions or with some background noises, the library has a variety of comfortable spaces to help you focus on your study needs.  Study spaces are available on a first serve basis; no reservations taken.
