Student Resources
The library is here to support your academic journey.
Make the library your go-to place for studying! We offer a wide range of physical and digital resources that can be accessed at the library or from home. Our goal is to provide students with the tools they need for academic success and to encourage a love for lifelong learning.
A PLACE TO STUDY
The library is an ideal place for students to study, offering a serene 
and focused environment. You'll find large tables and comfortable chairs, as well as available charging stations to keep your devices powered up.
For those seeking a hushed atmosphere, quiet work, and study rooms are available and can be reserved by contacting the library or booking online, ensuring you have the perfect environment to concentrate on your work. The library is conveniently near Cedarburg's many coffee shops, so it's easy to refuel with a caffeine boost when needed.
