To achieve its mission, the Library supports the following principles:
  • To work collaboratively with faculty to support student achievement of the University's general educational outcomes.
  • To actively encourage and facilitate use of library services and collections.
  • To provide personalized assistance in the use of library resources.
  • To provide instruction on research strategies and tools.
  • To collect, develop, organize and provide access to collections that support the University's curricular goals.
  • To encourage lifelong learning by educating users to be self-reliant and discerning in the selection and use of information resources.
  • To serve as a repository for the history of Hodges University.
  • To serve as the local community's Federal documents depository library.
In support of our mission, we actively encourage and facilitate the use of our services and collections. Many of these services are provided here.
