The Library
The Lewis University Library is a 21st century hub of intellectual activity fostering synergy and sanctuary in the quest for knowledge and wisdom.
The library offers a variety of resources and services to assist students and the learning community in achieving their academic goals. The library’s online resources, available 24/7, include access to over 120 databases and full-text articles through the internet-based Summon service. Summon provides a digital front door to all of the library resources including Lewis periodical, print and DVD collections, as well as materials from an inter-library loan network of over 80 academic institutions across the state. Summon search is prominently available at our website at www.lewisu.edu/academics/library/.
Located on the Romeoville campus within the 1st and 2nd floors of the Brother Paul French FSC, Learning Resource Center, the library has individual and group study spaces. Over 50 public computers, scanners, printers, and fax services complement the university’s learning environment. Laptops may be checked-out for use inside the library.
Information literacy instruction sessions are available to assist students in navigating through our information-based society. This instruction guides the students in the use of our resources and provides a life-long learning skill.
