The Locations

 

Overview

Drexel University has four libraries: Hagerty Library and the College of Law Library, located on the University City Campus; the Hahnemann Library, located on the Center City Campus, and the Queen Lane Library, located on the College of Medicine Campus.

The mission of the Drexel University Libraries is to support the University's academic programs, research initiatives, and student learning. Through its facilities and services, its print and electronic collections, and through the work of its engaged and committed staff, the libraries actively collaborate in the educational mission of Drexel University. The collections emphasize subjects relevant to the University's disciplines, with print resources distributed to meet the needs of the programs and departments at each location. In addition, the Drexel University Libraries' web-based information system includes a wide range of electronic databases, electronic journals and books, and other resources that support research and scholarship both in the Libraries and online from home or office. Staff at each of the library locations is available to help library patrons at all times. Reference and subject librarians are available to assist individuals doing research and using the library or to provide organized classes covering specialized or general research skills. From 1998 to the present, the libraries' remote access resources, including databases, e-journals and e-books more than doubled. In 2000, an IMLS Leadership Grant funded a study of Drexel University Libraries' evolution to the electronic journal environment.
