Services for Faculty
Welcome, CSU Faculty! We’re dedicated to supporting your teaching and research with a blend of traditional and innovative library services, tailored just for you. On this page, you’ll find convenient access to faculty-specific services, helpful links to core resources, and information about our online Library Orientation Course for new CSU faculty, part-time instructors, adjuncts, or anyone seeking a refresher.
Our subject librarians are here to partner with you—selecting materials, offering instruction, and keeping you informed about our collections and services. We look forward to collaborating with you and helping you thrive at CSU!
About VPN: Library resource links have built-in proxy access. VPN is not necessary (or recommended) for off-campus access to library resources.
