How do I use the library?

The library's home page  is your gateway to all that the library has to offer, but the best part is that it is designed to help you conduct research.  Find background information, books, articles, and multimedia.

If you need tips on assignments and research, try the Jessup Playbooks. They can help you cite your sources, guide you through a specific assignment, and more!

Explore the left hand side of the home page to find information on library hours, library news, and useful links such as the group study room signup.

Do you need help?  You can contact us by phone (434.961.5309), by email, or in person, and when the library is closed, you can still get help by chatting with volunteer librarians who are waiting to provide you with the help you need; all you need to do is access the chat on the home page. Just type and send!
