With campus libraries in Ephraim and Richfield, the Snow College library serves as a place where students gather to study, research, and learn. A variety of traditional and non-traditional services are provided to support the educational activities of library users.

Collections

The library is a multimedia facility with collections that include approximately 50,000 print books, 280,000 E-books and thousands of CDs, DVDs, and microforms. Over 100,000 streaming films and millions of streaming music tracks are also available. Through cooperative purchases with other higher education libraries in the state, the library has online access to articles from hundreds of thousands of journals, magazines, and newspapers. Print and digital “Special Collections” provide access to materials related to Snow College, local history, and Utah history.

Reserve

As a service to students and faculty, textbooks and items used to supplement instruction may be purchased and placed “on reserve.” Physical items such as books and videos are kept at the circulation desk and typically loaned out for in-house use for two hours. Fair use copyright guidelines are followed for items placed on reserve.
