The CAS Library offers a technology-rich environment where students can work individually in study carrels, at open tables, or as a group in a study room. A creativity collection gives students a break and provides the opportunity to innovatively use construction kits, modeling kits and other hands-on resources.

The CAS Library contains books and magazines related to areas of study at the college and provides electronic access to numerous other research resources. Students may borrow books for three weeks with three renewals. A Textbook Reserve Collection at the circulation desk allows students to borrow class textbooks for two hours. A valid UC ID is required to check out items.
