Libraries
Welcome to the library!
The M State library is here to support you during your time at M State, offering everything from research assistance to tutoring to help finding a great book to read. And, if library staff can't help you, we'll locate the right person on campus who can. We strive to provide a welcoming and inclusive environment committed to embracing, nurturing and developing independent learners.
Resource links
Academic Specialists are here to help with your tutoring needs. You can find them in your campus library or online. Also, find information about Tutor.com, make appointments with Peer Tutors, and learn more about the Center for Academic Writing and Reading.

Find articles, videos, eBooks and more in our database collection. M State students are able to access databases from off-campus by first logging into SpartanNet or entering their StarID and password when prompted.
M State LibGuides are developed by the College Librarian to help students, faculty and staff more easily find library and online resources for their courses. LibGuides also feature curated collections of links to open educational resources (OERs). Students and faculty can request the creation of new guides for courses or specific research topics by reaching out to M State library staff.
Look for books or articles available at M State libraries or statewide. Place requests for books held by other libraries by signing in with your StarID and password and filling out the request form.
