Resource Library
The Academic Success office maintains a resource library of approximately 400 study aids for students.
Library Philosophy
Academic Success' Resource Library is maintained to help you learn the skill of using supplemental materials appropriately. The director will try to match you to a study aid appropriate for your learning style and study needs. Be aware that some poor-quality study aids are on the shelves for pedagogical purposes.

All items available for checkout are listed in the law library catalog.
Circulation Policy
You may check out up to two items at a time for three-days (72 hours), or more if the 3-day period would end on a Saturday or Sunday. Books may not be renewed online, but students may bring books in to be renewed in person. Holds may be placed only on items currently checked out.
Return items to the Academic Success Office (Room 123C) — outside the door is fine if the office door is closed. After business hours, please return items to the Law Library.
