Our people are your best resources.

We believe our staff are your best resources!  You are always welcome and are encouraged to come into any of the CMC libraries or learning commons to get help, use our resources, and work with our staff.  At Steamboat, that means you can come to one place for your research, writing and tutoring needs.  And sometimes we even have cookies or treats for you...

Resources

Particular subjects sometimes require specific research strategies.  Here are a few guides that could help!

Community patrons i.e. anyone who is not taking a CMC course or who does not work for CMC are very welcome in our library in-person to explore and use our physical resources.  Our community members can be issued a library card to check out any of our items other than our technology items and/or reserve items (although community members may be permitted to use those items in the library depending on their availability and student demand).   

Because our databases require authentication via a Basecamp login, the only way a community member can access our databases - even on campus - is for this small selection of databases that are available via IP authentication.  This list is currently found at:  https://library.coloradomtn.edu/ipdatabases.
