Library
The Marion Campus Library is located in the Library Classroom Building. The local collection includes over 42,000 books, periodical titles, and a variety of other information resources. The library also has several special collections, as well as a media collection, that are available for use.
Materials in the library and the University Libraries system are located through the online catalog, which can be accessed from the library website. The local collection is part of a larger statewide catalog called OhioLINK, which contains nearly 50 million items from 98 member libraries with access to many public library collections through the SearchOhio option. A collection of electronic resources, including e-books, e-journals, and research databases is also available through the library and OhioLINK. Many of the resources from OhioLINK can be accessed off-campus by logging in using your full name and Power Campus number from your campus-issued photo ID (with a "P" before your full 9-digit Power Campus number).
The library building is Wi-Fi enabled with access to MTC wireless. We offer two group study rooms for students to use on a first-come-first-serve basis. Students must also have a current campus-issued photo ID to checkout group study rooms and to checkout materials. The library has casual seating, study areas, study carrels, and 14 workstations. The library staff also provides rotating displays and exhibits of educational interest.
Students are responsible for all materials checked out on their library record. Fines and fees will be assessed if materials are not returned or renewed on time. Check the Services tab on the library website for more information our library services.
The library staff will be glad to provide you with research help, instruction in doing research, general library use assistance, and even tours; just ask!
